Abstract
Authors have studied on Revised Architecture-Urban-Soil Simultaneous Simulation Model, Revised-AUSSSM, for last couple years, which is a comprehensive frame to estimate the Urban Heat Island (UHI). In the field of urban climatology related to building scale, a demand for a practical frame to estimate UHI has become significantly among urban planing practitioners, architects, engineers and so forth. AUSSSM Tool was developed amid this kind of background. AUSSSM Tool has three child programs, Simulator, PostGraph and Viewer. Simulator works as a preprocessor for data input and a solver based on the Revised-AUSSSM. PostGraph provides wide variety of schematic expressions for results. Those two work altogether in order to run the simulation solver. Whereas, Viewer goes stand-alone, which provides stages to see a set of results coming form a compact database to confirm various factorial effects on UHI. The results are solved previously based on the Design of Experiment Theory. AUSSSM Tool was developed within a concept of entire GUI. AUSSSM Tool is opened on our web site, then anyone can downlaod not only an excutable package but also every source code for the Revise-AUSSSM written by Fortran and the interface part by Visual Basic.
