Abstract |
The purpose of this paper was to the develop CAD system named AE-CAD for supporting simulation programs related to architectural environment, and the result was same next. (1) AE-CAD consisted of 4 modules, modeler, converter, simulation program, and visual editor. In especial, it was introduced into the modeler that new algorithm was similar to building blocks (2) The data of AE-CAD were classified by objects such as space, face, opening, equipment, building material etc. And AE-CAD was programmed with Object Oriented Programming Language. (3) It was developed that new simulation program 'SimHeat' to calculate heat load and air flow on AE- CAD. (4) It was dynamic heat load simulation program that the supporting range of AE-CAD in the present version. But, sooner or later, AE-CAD will be extended to simulation programs to calculate ventilation, daylight factor, etc. |
