| Abstract | ||||
| The research aims to study the effect of orientation and different floors on the thermal performance of spaces in university buildings during the hot period of the university year in the building of the Faculties of Agriculture and Education at New Sohag University. To achieve the objective of the study, the research depends on the analytical method and field measurements, which includes field measurements, so (outdoor and indoor temperatures, and relative humidity) ) were measured for the spaces of the Faculties of Agriculture and Education overlooking the yards as well as on the external facades when the different orientations and floors, which represents the measurement of 6 days of each month (March, April, May). The results showed the convergence of indoor temperatures for all directions during the hot period in the building of the Faculties of Agriculture and Education, where we find that the average difference is not more than 2k° because the ventilation is insufficient in the spaces. The indoor temperatures of the spaces overlooking the courtyards of the Faculty of Agriculture and Education on the outdoor were reduced by an average of 1.0 2k° during the hot period. The spaces of the final floor also recorded higher of indoor temperature than the second floor spaces during the hot period in the faculty of agriculture and education building, in order to expose the ceiling of the final floor of direct solar radiation. The indoor temperatures of the spaces with different directives in the Faculties of Agriculture and Education building during the hot period are also shown to be higher than the range of temperatures accepted most of the time after 12:00 pm (which represents 50% to 60%). Of the total number of hours of measurement during the hot period of the academic year. Therefore, it’s recommended that there is continuous ventilation in the educational spaces so that indoor temperatures don’t rise above the range of indoor temperatures acceptable for the comfort of students, which affects their performance and educational achievement. | ||||
