Abstract— Domes were used extensively to cover the roofs of buildings, particularly mosque buildings; The purpose of this paper was to examine the role of the formation of domed roof of the thermal behavior of a relationship determines the most efficient in the shape of a hot, dry climate of Iraq, Baghdad, This research method is based on field research and simulation modeling to investigation this aim, By comparing the number of elected domes, where it has been conducting …show more content…
It is one of the architectural elements the most distinguished in Islamic architecture, play expressive and symbolic role at the same time. As well as its role in reducing the total heat gain of the roof, in order to reduce spending on energy put forward theories and concepts in architecture from the nature of the relationship between form and the environment from different points of view to devise the ideal shape of the building. Architectural shape one of the images of adaptation and the outcome of the deal is the environment external influences and internal influences are the human and requirements [1]. The principle of the ideal shape is a homonym to try to impact forces around the shape of an approach to a climatic performance required [2]. Domed roof played a role in reducing the total heat gain of the roof, but the difference in the shape and characteristics of domed the extent of shape a response to solar radiation as an influence environmental effects need to study. Miqdad H. & Jamal A, (2010) [3]. Studied the importance of domed roofs in reducing the total heat gain of the building in the summer and warm, dry areas as well as aspects of symbolic and aesthetic. Haghighat & Bahadori, (2011) [4]. Installed the thermal performance of the domed roofs is better than flat roofs, especially when it is covered with a glazed tiled dome with openings to flow the air inside the building. Basharat Jamil, & M. Ahmad Jamil, (2011) [5]. He explained that the building is dome shaped behavior in temperate climates acceptable in the summer and winter. Faghih & M. N. Bahadori. (2009) [6]. Verified experimentally that the air flows between the opened windows and aperture at the top of the dome. Mohammad Javad, M. & Mahya, H, (2013) [7]. Explained that the thermal performance of the domed roofs of at least rise more suitable because it has less space. Faghih, A. & Bahadori, M. N. (2009) [8]. Studied of solar
