Heating And Cooling Degree Day Calculator

Heating And Cooling Degree Day: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers daily temperatures (deg). Stub page while the tool and its worked example are prepared.

Heating And Cooling Degree Day Calculator is a planned calculator in the technology section of Super Calculator, covering crypto mining and energy.

What this calculator will compute

Inputs: daily temperatures (deg), base temperature (deg), date range (date range) and method (label).

Outputs: heating degree days (deg d), cooling degree days (deg d), energy estimate (kWh) and comparison to normal (%).

Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Degree days accumulate the difference between a base temperature and the daily mean temperature, summed over days where the difference is positive. Base 65 degrees Fahrenheit is the United States convention and base 15.5 degrees Celsius the United Kingdom convention, and mean-temperature and integration methods give different totals.
