Excel output data

[Mrtn Skc]

Hi 

can someone explain why my output data is so strange? first i assumed that E+1 means times 10. but when i look at my hrr it is 6,00+11 and that would be way to high. so is my calculation wrong or am i?

We need an input file to see what is wrong.  Please simplify to a minimal file showing the HRRPUA and the surface area of the burner.

It looks to me  like you have commas and stops switched? are you in Europe?

When you import data into excel with the wizard, on the last window is an option to swap the commas for the thousand seperator and stops for decimal point.

Or you can swap it permenantly in the excel options.
