Abstract:In view of the complex conditions existing in modern high -rise buildings , an elevator traffic planning method is proposed using numerical simulation .Considering the randomness and uncertainty in passen-ger arrivals, the O-D distributions of passenger arrivals in the interval between successive car arrivals are gener -ated by Monte Carlo simulation by which the stochastic features of the passenger flow under complex building conditions which is hardly to express by analytic methods are described , and then the stochastic model of the crit-ical parameter for elevator traffic planning -elevator Round Trip Time ( RTT) is established based on the eleva-tor operation mechanism .The proposed method has not only overcome the limitation of the conventional analytical method, but improved the similar methods , which is closer to the real behavior of elevator traffic system .Compa-ring with the traditional analytical methods and other similar methods shows the validity of the proposed method .
