In order to counter the global warming, there is a pressing need to promote energy conservation and efficient use of energy, while, people still strongly desire comfortable living environment. In order to meet both the demands, simulation-aided thermal environment design, rather than the conventional calculations, has become indispensable in realizing required level of performance. This paper presents recommendations for a future design system operations on systematic principles that can be utilized by construction companies for practical builiding-equipment systems. Specific consideration is also provided for such a design system using a simulation-aided design software, SAPLO(Simulation-aided Architectural Planning Language based on Object oriented concept).
