During the warm seasons, spatially in a hot and arid climate, cross ventilation is highly applicable for improving indoor thermal comfort. Solar chimney (SC) systems enhance NV through buildings via buoyancy forces as an alternative for improving comfortable conditions. In this study, two high-rise buildings in two different microclimates (Artesh highway and Mojahedin Eslam Street) in Tehran city are chosen that both use cross ventilation as a passive strategy. Also, the LEED survey is used to assess how much occupants are satisfied with indoor thermal comfort. The field experiment was carried out in the fourth story of each building to investigate the impact of cross ventilation on indoor air temperature and wind velocity. Additionally, CFD method is employed to simulate cross ventilation and SC in buildings. The results show that SC can decrease about 2 ˚C of room temperature by boosting NV which improves the thermal comfort zone inside the houses. according to the survey, 23.1% and 7.5% of residents are respectively dissatisfied with the non-response of the cooling system and the stillness of the air, so the use of SC can significantly increase indoor thermal comfort zone and residents’ satisfaction.https://www.ijumes.com/article_698500_66e6cd48b092743b9f8a660e47b62f5e.pdfIranian Sustainable Building Scientific AssociationInternational Journal of Urban Management and Energy Sustainability2538-16282420211101Evaluation of the optimal form of educational building based on energy consumption (Case study: Torbat Heydarieh city)586869850410.22034/jumes.2021.558191.1081ENPedramHessariAssistant professor, Faculty of Technical and Engineering, University of Torbat Heydarieh, Torbat Heydarieh, Iran0000-0002-1666-4245MaryamSeyf ShojaeeUniversity of Torbat Heydarieh, IranJournal Article20210901Since the building sector has a significant contribution in energy consumption, it is very important to pay attention to ways to reduce energy consumption. In this research, an attempt has been made to provide a solution for the design of the building form based on the energy consumption of educational spaces in the cold and dry climate, especially Torbat Heydarieh city, at the building design stage. For this purpose, the climate of the region, the comfort conditions in it, the criteria for reducing energy consumption in the building sector and the design criteria and standards of the Faculty of Architecture have been examined and evaluated based on the available sources and documents. After conducting the studies, the location of each space has been analyzed and evaluated based on the usage and the amount of solar energy received using Ecotect and Radiance software. The method of analyzing the form of the educational building was based on the studies and the initial plan and form were modeled in the Revit software, and the plan was modified based on the spatial quality. After considering the solutions to reduce the consumption, the energy consumption in each mode has been measured using DesignBuilder software. Then again, the lighting of each space was controlled using Ecotect and Radiance software. In the end, by entering the information into the Mabna software, the correctness of the plan has been ensured based on the criteria of the 19th topic of the National Building Regulations of Iran.https://www.ijumes.com/article_698504_5eec291f6af8a660738d83e56743d5df.pdfIranian Sustainable Building Scientific AssociationInternational Journal of Urban Management and Energy Sustainability2538-16282420211101Studying Energy Consumption in Built Educational Spaces with Approach of Sustainability and Optimization698569850510.22034/jumes.2021.560771.1083ENJavadEirajiDepartment of Architecture, Hashtgerd Branch, Islamic Azad University, Hashtgerd, Iran0000-0002-5230-8053SaidehElmkhahDepartment of Architecture, Tehran South Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran0000-0002-4189-1298Journal Article20210723In this paper, first we will have a review and basic studies of sustainability. Next, as educational buildings have more energy consumption, we will study the current situation of architectural and energy consumption details of our selected and built case study. The simulations used in this research are done in the framework of Grasshopper and Ladybug and Honeybee plugins. Energy-Plus and Open Studio simulation engines are responsible for energy simulation in these plugins and Radiance and Daysim engines are responsible for daylight simulations. The results of the research show that despite the positive points, many of the negative points have been detected that led to high energy consumption and as the project is built, availability of changes are harder. The results shows that according to the mentioned factors, analysis and simulations the application of internal insulation for exterior walls and changing the type of window to low-emission double-glazing window, reduces energy consumption in the heating sector by 12%, energy consumption in the cooling sector by 17% and the use of intelligent lighting systems have reduced energy consumption by 28%. Also the option to change the air conditioning system and also daylight situation is completely rejected as the simulations confirms.https://www.ijumes.com/article_698505_ab90df518647f9ff81da063d95a3f21d.pdfIranian Sustainable Building Scientific AssociationInternational Journal of Urban Management and Energy Sustainability2538-16282420211101Explaining the Concept of Physical Complexity in Urban Landscape and Identity869969851210.22034/jumes.2021.561686.1086ENRozhinMarziDepartment of Urban Planning, Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning, Central Tehran Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, IranToofanHaghaniDepartment of Urban Planning, Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning, Central Tehran Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, IranMahmudRezaeiDepartment of Architecture, Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning, Central Tehran Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, IranJournal Article20210807While "identity" in the general sense has a long history and is in line with the history of civilization, its connection with the urban landscape and body, especially with the complexity theory has not been explained. In the process of perception, this concept can present a complex phenomenon that needs to be redefined with the appropriate theory. The connection between identity and urban landscape with the complexity theory has become an influential issue in the sciences related to this field. Hence, the present study aims to address its connection with the theory of physical complexity by explaining the theories of physical identity and urban landscape. The question is how can the physical identity of the city be recognized and defined based on the complexity theory and its consistency with the components of the urban landscape? How can the concept of landscape and physical identity be explained by complexity theory in urban planning? The research method was based on grounded theory, content analysis of texts and theoretical saturation of the experts. First, three concepts were extracted from urban design literature. Then, an attempt was made to find more relevant concepts by coding and comparative comparison and analysis. According to the pairwise comparison and analysis of each of the introduced criteria for all three concepts, it has found that physical complexity is one of the characteristics of physical identity and urban landscape. Also, similarity- differentiation, unity-plurality, and continuity-evolution are common concepts connecting the complexity theory to the urban physical landscape and identity.https://www.ijumes.com/article_698512_5b6c5f9aa6d183bb00a51801cd8260d4.pdfIranian Sustainable Building Scientific AssociationInternational Journal of Urban Management and Energy Sustainability2538-16282420211001Socio Economic Aspects Influencing the Formation of Low-Cost Housing Architecture after Iran's Islamic Revolution10011771359110.22034/ijumes.2024.562836.1089ENElhamShahhosseiniPh.D. student of architecture, Department of Architecture, Faculty of Art, Architecture and Urbanism, Kerman Branch, Islamic Azad University, Kerman, IranMahdiyehMoeiniAssistant Professor, Department of Architecture, Faculty of Art, Architecture and Urbanism, Kerman Branch, Islamic Azad University, Kerman, Iran0000-0003-0745-3988RezaAfhamiAssociate Professor, Department of Art Studies, Tarbiat Modares University, Tehran, IranJournal Article20210924housing sector can be considered one of the most important parts of development in a society.
