Abstract Most traditional approaches of architectural heritage conservation viewed as a static bulk stones that need technical interference. This view damaged the continuity historical buildings and their urban context with its history identity. There is growing for new comprehensive approach capable to bring back this life restore dynamics continuity. research presents conservation. engages all important elements in one complete package. These are generative, responsive, adaptive, sustainable, participatory, conciliatory. The also aims more attention distinguished applications at Al-Alami house Gaza, Palestine. Our applies qualitative in-depth analysis, critical reflection, synthesis available literature. Each discussed show theoretical development practical through international projects. case study Palestine then detail. literature review revealed some have been individually considered. Moreover, groups these highlight comprehensiveness inclusion.

Historical building reuse is aimed at preservation, where buildings are recovered for new uses connected to cultural activities. This paper presents the analysis of impact thermo-fluid dynamics due a 500 kW electrical power transformer installed inside historical building. The performed using computational fluid simulations validated through measurement campaigns carried out during summer period. High temperatures and wide humidity variations can damage plasters cause malfunctions in equipment. To avoid these situations, two different installation layouts were studied. One consists directly environment cooled by an inlet fan, other being insulated from external enclosure forced ventilation system. second layout showed better results both outside enclosure. maximum indoor condition was about 4.3 °C, with −7.2% RH airflow rate 1100 m3/h, outdoor air 3.3 −1.39% flow 2200 m3/h.
