Thesis title: Investigating the Environmental Performance of Government Primary School in Egypt: with particular
concern to thermal comfort
Supervisors: Prof. Simon Unwin and Mr. Tamer Gado
The research project mainly aimed to passively enhancing the environmental performance of primary classrooms with
great concern to thermal comfort and energy efficiency. A pilot study and a main field study in eighteen case studies
had been conducted to investigate the environmental performance of their classrooms. The investigation used the
observation, the subjective assessment and the objective assessment techniques in order to conduct a Post Occupancy
Evaluation (POE). Subjected assessment included conducting interviews and questionnaire with over three hundred
school occupants (Children, teachers, head teachers, architects and engineers who responsible for designing and
maintaining the school buildings). The objective assessment was conducted for all the parameters affected thermal
comfort “weather data, internal air temperature, mean radiant temperature MRT, CO2, air movement and speed, and
relative humidity”. A parametric analysis for the proposed passive means was conducted. All the case studies were
modelled using Autodesk ECOTECT as the main tool of the research. HTB2 as more detailed thermal simulation
engine was used to simulate the internal air temperature of the spaces inside the case studies. Results of the research
suggested that the proposed passive measures can enhance the thermal performance of the classrooms significantly.

This work introduce the main principles and fundamentals of thermal comfort inside school buildings. A
case study from Egypt, representing one of the hottest arid climate of the world, is analysed in terms of
building performance and occupants' response. Different design solution are presented through
parametric design analysis in order to enhance the thermal performance of these examples and bring
them inside the thermal comfort zone for human being. To reach these results, several tools are
employed in this work. These are; field study and monitoring, computer-based tools (simulation
