Abstract

Turkey has mainly seven geographic zones but four climatic zones. Major influence on energy usage and educational buildings which perform well in energy terms will reap significant environmental and economic benefits for years to come. The lack of electric, heating-cooling and lighting comfort in the structure reduce the quality of education. Many village schools cannot provide training in enough conditions. Municipalities are preparing “Type School Project” for government schools, without thinking different zones conditions, directions and heights. At this stage, there arises importance of the Architectural Design Process for typical energy efficient design which can easily adapt to the location. The material must not only be transmits about 70-90% of solar radiation, but also its insulation quality. Additionally architectural form of building must be affected to take all solar energy, wind and water. In this study, architectural design method has been used for energy gain from transparent insulated trombe wall. And have been calculated in accordance with their manners in the middle, south, noth, east and west regions of Anatolia which are located in different degree-days regions on the basis of TS 825.
