Graphical methods for designing house heating system

Abstract

This article analyzes graphical methods for designing engineering system. The crea-rion tasks of the house heating automated design system aire solved with Unified Modeling Language Graphical system can select types of radiators and valves, design pipes and specification. It discerns objects-classes: radiator, valve, pipe and specification, which have some properties and methods that ense programmer's work. The program selects geometry parameters of radiators from radiators database by using ActiveX Data Objects technology which by programming method connects drawing and database. Drawing's graphical objects have additional data from which exchange of data between graphical system and database is executed The program, kuowing radiators' and pipes' geometry, designs house heating system. Design system and example of the house heating project are presented. Graphical methods of the house heating automated design system are discussed and conclusions are made.
