A simplified TAC method was developed for the selection of design temperature and absolute humidity for peak cooling and heating load calculation with ETD method. And the design data of the 11 major cities in Korea were obtained. Based on the simplified TAC method, the design data for summer and autumn cooling season were selected by the TAC 5.0% of July through August and TAC 5.0% of October, respectively. But the design data for winter heating season were selected by the conventional TAC 2.5% of the full winter season.

A simplified TAC method was developed for the selection of solar atmospheric transmittance data fundamental to the calculation of design solar radiation for the peak cooling load calculation using ETD method. The summer and autumn solar atmospheric transmittance data of the 11 major cities in Korea were obtained. Based on the simplified TAC method, the atmospheric transmittance data were selected by the TAC 2.5% of July instead of the TAC 2.5% of June through September for summer and the TAC 5.0% of October instead of the TAC 2.5% of October and November for autumn. Results show that the atmospheric transmittance data at solar noon were in the range of 0.61-0.66 for summer and 0.78-0.82 for autumn except for Pusan and Incheon.
