Evaluation of climatic performance of the urban depending on the digital representation

The research begins by explaining the importance of digital simulation programs as one of the primary climate evaluation tools due to their ability to represent the climate reality of the building before execution. This is done by illustrating the evaluation methodology used by the digital simulation programs, which will be accompanied by a demonstration of evaluating one of the residential neighborhood using a number of digital simulation programs. The demonstration will run the evaluation methodology through the urban design stages of residential neighborhood. A second demonstration will be shown for a program designed to match the climate of a city in Egypt. In addition, results will be displayed for the design of digital simulation programs that will match the local climate of any city in the world. Finally, the research concludes with a number of results and recommendations. - Research Journal of Aleppo University
