Coupling thermal mass and water systems as urban passive design in hot climates

The impact of water in buildings is studied as a combination of vertical walls and horizontal pools that creates a combined passive cooling system for public spaces in hot climates. The paper draws from traditional water-based systems principles and forms in Mughal architecture, with the aim of st...
