Until today, human beings have determined the materials required to create the shelters they need, based on their experience and traditions, along with a limited number of products, in recent years, changes in social structure, technology and changing needs have changed the preferences regarding the desired comfort conditions in shelter areas. The design of healthier and energy efficient buildings has gained importance. For this purpose, it has become necessary to evaluate the performance of building products developed together with their technical specifications in order to determine whether they meet the needs and preferences. In this regard, simulation-based evaluations have become among the analysis methods frequently used by researchers to make the desired comparisons by providing accurate results in a short time. In this study, the energy transfer in the walls of a building designed with Bims brick, which is produced in a company close to Batman as a structural element and widely used in Batman, was investigated using the ANSYS simulation program. For this purpose, the use of pumice bricks with the same width but different sizes and gaps in different orders in the market as wall masonry material with different density and heat conduction coefficient values has been evaluated for sandwich, externally insulated and internally insulated wall types. XPS and rock wool were used as insulation materials on the exterior walls of the building, taking into account the optimum thickness value of Batman province. For the evaluation, twenty-two alternative scenarios were created with eight Pumice brick types produced with different technical specifications and the combinations that would provide the highest contribution to energy efficiency for Batman province were investigated. The simulation-supported study results are intended to guide decision makers, contractors and engineers who want to design energy efficient buildings in Batman province.
