Mitigating the Effects of Urban Heat Island on Outdoor Thermal Comfort by Urban Geometry Reshaping: A Case Study of Mashhad’s Vaez Tabasi Street
In recent decades, urban design has faced two critical challenges: the impact of climate change and urban growth. Urban structures, mainly in the centre of metropolises, absorb heat during the day and create urban heat islands. Creating outdoor thermal comfort is a practical approach to mitigate this phenomenon. This research aims to assess the impact of changes in urban geometry on outdoor thermal comfort in a street canyon located in Mashhad. The outcomes suggest that increasing the H/R ratio may lower the ambient temperature. The study results reveal that modifications in this ratio might induce heat emission. Ratio change also affects the airflow and wind shadow phenomenon, which helps decrease the ambient temperature and adverse effects of urban heat islands. Increasing the H/W ratio without addressing wind flow may reduce outdoor thermal comfort in street canyons.
