Abstract :
In today's world, the national security of most countries has depended on secure energy access, and therefore the optimum use of it has been the focus of attention of many statesmen and researchers. Expansion of consumption in the household sector and waste of energy in the urban community are among the obvious reasons for the rapid growth of energy consumption in the national economy. For this reason, energy consumption in the building sector needs to be considered. In this paper, after simulating an office building in Garmsar City with Design-Builder Software and validating it, the effect of the roof insulation and double wall parameters on the energy consumption has been investigated. The results show that the roof insulation and the use of a double wall can have a significant impact on building energy consumption.
