“…The air circulation inside any building is one of the most critical factors in achieving thermal comfort. Thermal comfort plays a very strategic role in building design because most or about 80% of the time, people's activities are indoors [9]. Ventilation considerations are prioritized in the building's design and urban planning in the hot, dry climate.…”

This research aims to find principles that achieve an integrated architectural environment in the desert environment that meets human needs and preserves the rights of future generations. Studying and analyzing the successful solutions and treatments provided by the traditional architectural environment in a desert environment and in a hot, dry climate help achieve this aim. Nowadays, we find a growing research interest in sustainability. This research paper concentrated on the relationship of the desert environment with the built environment to achieve an integrated environment to meet human needs, ration energy consumption and preserve the identity of the architecture. This research studies traditional architecture in a desert environment to identify appropriate solutions to the climatic environment and its ability to harmonize and respond to its climatic environment, with its high capacity to respond to human needs in these communities. The research adopted the analytical descriptive approach in its study of the relationship of the desert climatic environment with the built architectural environment. The Climate Consultant software is used for this research to recommend various design strategies suitable for each climate. The three central climates analyzed in this study are coastal desert areas, moderate desert areas, and hot, dry desert environments. In conclusion, this research found that in the past, the traditional environment has provided and continues to provide effective climatic solutions.

“…However, there are national [1] and international [2-6] standards that establish the technical and methodological bases to estimate these thermal indicators based on the local particularities of each case. At the same time, different authors have developed universal thermal comfort models [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] of graphic, mathematical, computer, or algorithmic type, which offer an approach to local thermal comfort [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] from outdoor weather and some endogenous factors of people (activity level and clothing).…”

Adverse thermal conditions alter the indoor habitability and consequently, the occupants' health, performance, mood and comfort. Although there are local regulations that provide thermal indicators for the indoor architectural design, this are usually unrelated to the climate, type of construction project and psychophysiological adaptation of people. In this way, this chapter shows the thermal comfort ranges estimated from the thermal environment’s physical variables, using the adaptive approach, for Ensenada City, Mexico (dry-temperate bioclimate). Surveys were applied to collect the subjective perception simultaneously of the measurement of black globe temperature, air temperature, relative humidity and wind speed. Study sample was made up from students of a public university whose activity level is sedentary (1.2 met) and clothing is light (0.7 clo). The survey was designed based on the ISO 10551 and ANSI/ASHRAE 55 standards, while the physical measurement instruments were selected based on ISO 7726, managing to generate a class I database. The study was correlational and statistically analyzed with 3,750 surveys from Average by Thermal Sensation Intervals method. 16 comfort ranges were quantitatively and graphically estimated from the four physical variables analyzed in each of the four representative thermal periods of the city. These indicators offer objective knowledge for proper decision-making during the architectural design process and, therefore, for the thermal-energy efficiency of buildings.
