Description

This disclosure generally relates to design methods and programs, and more specifically to design methods and programs for determining the installation location of air conditioning equipment. Patent Document 1 discloses a technology for proposing installation locations for air conditioners (air conditioning equipment) to users. Specifically, the air conditioner purchase support system described in Patent Document 1 comprises a search means, a data output means, a desired location input means, and a suitability information transmission means. The search means searches for suitable installation location information for the user's installation room information regarding air conditioner installation. The data output means sends the suitable installation location information data retrieved by the search means to the user. The desired location input means prompts the user to input their desired installation location if they are not satisfied with the results of the suitable installation location data for the air conditioner presented to them. The suitability information transmission means transmits to the user suitable installation location data and suitability information data for that installation location, which are stored in a database in advance, based on the installation location data desired by the user entered by the desired location input means. The air conditioner purchase support system described in Patent Document 1 makes it possible to improve the comfort of the space through the above configuration. Japanese Patent Publication No. 2002-150051 This disclosure aims to provide a design method and program that can further improve the comfort of a space. A design method according to one aspect of this disclosure is a design method for determining an installation location in a space. The installation location is the location where the air conditioning equipment will be installed. The design method comprises a first acquisition step, a second acquisition step, a third acquisition step, an analysis step, and a determination step. In the first acquisition step, model data of the space is acquired. In the second acquisition step, user information is acquired. The user information is information relating to the user's expected average temperature and cold sensation report in the space. In the third acquisition step, candidate information indicating candidate installation locations is acquired. In the analysis step, the distribution of the user's expected average temperature and cold sensation report in the space when the air conditioning equipment is installed at the candidate location is analyzed based on the model data and the user information. In the determination step, if the distribution of the user's expected average temperature and cold sensation report in the space satisfies predetermined conditions, the candidate is determined as the installation location. The candidate information includes area information indicating one or more areas included in the space. In the design method, multiple locations within the one or more areas are each designated as candidates. A program according to one aspect of this disclosure is a program for causing one or more processors of a computer system to execute the design method.
