Abstract
This paper aims at evaluating the utilization of weather data from cities listed in the standard NBR-16401-1 to calculate the thermal load of buildings located in cities not listed by it, following the criteria established by that standard for finding among the cities listed, that whose climatic parameters are the closest to the project city. The thermal load of the same building was calculated with the aid of HAP software, 7.1 version from Carrier, using climatic data from the Test Meteorological Year of the project and the listed cities, design criteria provided by the standard and design criteria for non-listed cities calculated from the Test Meteorological Year using the Normal probability distribution. The results obtained for the project typical day were compared to evaluate possible differences between them. This process was repeated for five pairs of different cities, with the aim of expanding the study sample, making it more comprehensive. It was concluded that, in most cases, but not for all, to use the weather data provided by the standard for calculating the thermal load of buildings in non-listed cities is a good approximation.
