Abstract

Trombe walls are one of the sustainable technologies because of their importance and effective rol in interior spaces by making use of solar energy to control the temperature of the interior spaces and thus achieve thermal comfort without the need to use cooling devices to reduce the energy used, the Trombe wall is an important element in solar design Passive. To save heat in indoor spaces, the main advantage of trombe walls is that they can be constructed virtually from locally available materials. These walls also reduce the need for heating and cooling the building. It is even considered a vital technology for sustainable architecture that effectively contributes to hot-arid environments like Iraq. The research will discuss the most important types of Trombe Walls, the characteristics of Trombe Walls, including the Trombe Wall formations, and the Trombe Wall technology, and the feasibility of realizing the concept of energy efficiency in Iraq using the trombe wall
