The Effects of Courtyard Envelope on the Energy Required for Cooling in the Hot Desert Climate [PDF]
SVU-International Journal of Engineering Sciences and Applications, 2023 The objective of this paper is to investigate how various aspects of the courtyard envelope affect the amount of energy required to maintain a comfortable temperature in Egypt's hot deserts. Two different courtyard ratios (R1 and R2) were simulated using
