Modelling Urban Microclimates
A microclimateMicroclimate refers to a distinctive climate of a small-scale area, such as a garden, park, valley, or part of a city. Urban microclimatesUrban microclimates are both complex and dynamic. ModellingModelling urban microclimate can provide robust measures for analyzing urban physical parameters including wind, temperature and solar radiationSolar radiation in complex urban areasUrban areas at different scales, assessing outdoor thermal environments and performing parametric studies for successful urban planningUrban planning and design of a liveable urban environmentUrban environments for citizens. This chapter introduces a robust and fast-running tool that can be used to simulate urban solar radiationSolar radiation, surfaceSurfaces temperatures and air temperatureAir temperature. A case studyCase study of the implementation of this tool is demonstrated.
