چکیده

Traditional Iranian architecture has always been held up as a model, showing how climatic elements like geometry, orientation, materials, configuration, and spatial structure can be used appropriately for a proper design. Due to the efficiency of this architecture in energy consumption, it is considered as a solution for modern architecture in this field. In traditional Iranian architecture, solutions such as winter and summer residences have been provided to optimize energy consumption in buildings with higher energy consumption. This study aimed to evaluates the energy consumption of traditional houses and measuring the efficiency of these buildings in the energy field. The research methodology with a quantitative approach is the simulation of energy performance. For this purpose, the traditional houses of Mashhad city are divided into three groups, one-way, two-way, and three-way firstly, and one sample is randomly selected from samples. The simulation tools are two plugins, Ladybug and Honeybee, on the Grasshopper platform. The energy consumption results have been compared and labeled based on the residential rate standard of Iran's National Standard Organization. The results show that different types of traditional residential buildings can be in acceptable categories of energy efficiency so that they can get the energy label. Moreover, it was revealed that the winter and summer residence solution in the larger buildings has a significant effect the energy consumption in the desired seasons. The innovation of this case study lies in the heart of its major conclusions, as the conducted analysis can compete with those presented in the literatur.
