Abstract: ABSTRACT: Nowadays, because of lack of traditional sources of energy and high maintenance cost, building as a one of the major energy consumer and its problems in hot and humid regions become one of the main concerns of architects and designers. Also, there is a growing global interest in the impact of human activities on the environment in respect to global warming. The increment of energy demand in the developing world and global warming issues define the need for buildings with fewer problems. With regards to built environment, the primary concern is sustainability in the developments of the building industry and building energy consumption (Djongyang, Tchinda, & Njomo, 2010). This implies consideration of the impact of the climate and environment on the building and ultimately the effect of the building‟s condition on the occupants. This awareness has initiated many studies related to climatic design to maximize indoor comfort with minimum and efficient use of the energy. Understanding the local weather climatology and learning a reliable prediction process is essential for an architect before designing the building. Today mostly used by the developed countries and it is still an emerging technology (Chou, Chua, & Ho, 2009). Therefore, in this study, aim is to analyze building facade in terms of to find out how the design qualities of the building, supply indoor thermal comfort. Health center of “E.M.U” has selected as a case study. This research focused on thermal comfort of that building which calculation of thermal comfort factor has been analyzed by TAS software application. This method was explained and used in order to estimate the existing temperature to the highest efficiency effect and reduce the carbon footprint of the building. Key Words: Facade, Double Skin Facade, Chimney, Thermal Comfort, Natural Ventilation. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ÖZ: Günümüzde geneleksel enerji yetersizliğinden dolayı, mimarlar ve tasarımcıların sıcak ve nemli ülkelerde en önemli endişelerini oluşturmaktadır. İnsanların ilgisi, küresel ısınmadan kaynaklanan çevresel anlamda aktiviteleri giderek artmaktadır. Gelişen dünyada giderek artan enerji ihtiyacı ve küresel ısınmadan oluşan sorunlar, bugünkü yapıların daha az problemli olmasını arz eder. Yapılı çevreyi göz ardında bulundurarak, inşa alanlarındaki en büyük kaygı, inşaat sektörleindeki enerji sarfıyatı ve tüketimin gelişmesidir. Yerel iklim ve klimatalojiyi öğrenmek mimarlar için güvenilir bir ön sezgi metotu tasarımda oluşturmuştur. Yeni mimari yapılardaki tasarım çift ön cephe sistemi güncel mimarlığın bir parçası olarak şehir ve çevreyi etkiler. Günümüzde çoğunlukla gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkelerde teknoloji olarak üremekte rağbet görmektedir. Dolayısıyla, bu çalışma ve araştırmanın amacı, iç ortam sıcaklığı termal rahatlık sağlamak amaçlı ön cephe yapılarının analizidir. Kuzey Kıbrıs Türk Cumhuriyeti‟nde, Doğu Akdeniz Üniversitesi Sağlık Merkezi araştırmaya konu olarak seçilmiştir. "TAS" yazılım uygulanması tarafından incelenmiş,tir Bu metot var olan ısıyı tespit etmek ve etkili kullanımı en üst düzeye çıkartmakla binada karbon izinin azalmasını sağlamak tadır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Chephe, Iki Katmanlı Cephe, Baca, Isıl Konfor ve Doğal Havalandırma.
