Some Tips of Sustainable Evidence Conforming to Traditional Iranian Architecture (Wind Tower, Watering Place)

Traditional tips in architecture and urban planning have unique features which not only take into consideration the aesthetic aspect and the conservation of the environment but also have full filled the climatic needs in any regions. Sustainability in architecture has been considered one of the important issues in recent decade and has always been hand in hand with energy, ecology and climate. A sub branch of sustainable architecture is the architecture which is climate friendly in which energy management is considerably important. Considering the issue of irreversibility of energy resources which is one of the concerns of us for the future. Natured energies can be used as a solution. The traditional and local architecture in Iran through different ways has had the ability the manage energy through intelligent use of natural energies. The present research aims to find answers for the following questions: (a) What considerations have been thought of in traditional architecture to make use of natural renewable sources of energy in hot and dry climates? (b) What has been the role of wind tower in the management and use of natural energy from wind in the local and traditional architecture in Iran and its application in the architecture of watering place? (c) What can be the role of traditional wind tower in contemporary situation?Traditional Iranian architecture has been able to respond to ecological and energy efficiency issues due to its low primary price as well as its current price and performance. In traditional and local constructions, the use of renewable sources of energy such as air stream, light, sun, wind and etc. has always been paid attention to. To this aim, some strategies have been used including compact and continuous urban fabric, proper orientation of the city, being position a suitable wind direction, using appropriate construction materials, building walls with high thermal capacity, central yard, proper organization and hierarchy of space, being down from alley level etc. in order to provide cooling, and heating comfort needed for humans.
