| Abstract |
Thermal Analysis with material characteristics is a part of performance based design for fire-resistance and is base of structural response for elements in buildings. To predict thermal response of elements in buildings, we developed the 2D Thermal Conduction Analysis System for the constitutive elements with C language in this study. Also, the tool for thermal analysis is constructed to be able to do the multi-tasking e.g treating input & output data, and running program for the user's convenience with visual basic 6.0. To prove the correctness of the result through the numerical analysis, we took the thermal analysis data from the surface of steel exposed to the high temperature over 800℃ in reference and we ran the TCA program under the same conditions of data in reference. Also we verified the applications of Thermal Analysis System to many kinds of materials e.g., brick, CFT, concrete elements. |
