Abstract

The building shape and spaces greatly influence ambient temperatures in those spaces. The thermal performance of interior spaces is highly influenced by a number of factors. On top of these factors are: space ratios (height, width, length), walls (thickness, construction material), window openings (height, width, length). As for the factors that determine a building mass, the most important are: shape of building mass, building orientation, using inner courts, etc. 
The present generation of climatic design tools should rely more on digital presentation by computers, in order to aid designers make sound design decisions based on visible results. Thus, the computer carries out all calculations thus relieving specialized designers in order to reach reliable results. 
Due to the scarce use of simulation software in the climatic assessment of residential buildings; the study aims at studying the influence of residential floor dissimilarity and its height on the thermal performance of spaces in residential buildings at New Assiut City, Egypt. 
To achieve this aim, the research is done by the analytical and applied methods, using the simulation software Thermal Analysis Software as a computer 
program, from the climatic analysis of New Assiut City - as well as identifying the prevailing residential patterns, and detailed study of the selected residential building, identifying the software used, and analyzing the simulation results for ambient room temperatures of the cold and hot periods - for the above mentioned of the selected model. The research ends with a number of results and recommendations. Such results may be applied in hot desert areas.
