المستخلص Thermal comfort is one of the necessary requirements for students in the interior spaces of the university buildings where students spend a long time that may reach a third of the day in educational spaces. With the emergence of the problems for thermal comfort in the interior spaces of the university buildings in hot, dry areas, most of which were associated with high temperature, inadequate ventilation, high student density. All of these problems affect the performance and achievement of university students. Consequently, the Research Problem is about the emergence of the need to evaluate the thermal performance of the interior environment of the university buildings in Upper Egypt to determine the appropriate range of environmental factors in university educational spaces in hot dry areas. Therefore, the main Objective of the research is to evaluate the thermal performance in the spaces of government university buildings in Upper Egypt. To achieve the goal of the study, an analytical approach was used to determine the factors affecting the thermal comfort of students, architectural treatments affecting the thermal performance of spaces in the university buildings in hot dry areas, the climate description of the study area (Sohag City) and the architectural analysis of case study buildings (New Sohag university). The experimental approach was used to determine the actual thermal comfort level of the internal environment of the new Sohag university buildings through field measurements (internal and external temperature, relative humidity, and airspeed) for educational spaces during the academic year. The descriptive / field approach was used to find the extent of the response of the students to thermal comfort within the spaces of the new Sohag university buildings by making questionnaires during the measurement period. And finally, the deductive approach that suggests architectural recommendations to improve or preserve thermal comfort in the spaces of the university buildings in hot dry areas |
