This paper clearly presents and defines the numerical study on how hollow building block operates to suppress the convectional currents and reduce the amount of heat flux transferred across the petition of the building wall. The configuration and weight of these blocks have made them to fully be utilized in building the facades. The air filled cavities (hollow cells) together with the small cross-sectional area geometry provides an appropriate elevation for the building block.
