Abstract: A computer-aided design system for determining thermal comfort design strategies is presented. The system is based on a knowledge base which stores the existing information concerning thermal comfort rules of thumb, and precise procedural calculations which facilitates the defining of thermal comfort design strategies that best suite the local climatic conditions and the specific constrains of the design problem at hand.
