Journal ArticleDOI

Intra-urban societal vulnerability to extreme heat: the role of heat exposure and the built environment, socioeconomics, and neighborhood stability.

TL;DR: Philadelphia neighborhoods with more heat exposure, Black, Hispanic, linguistically and socially isolated residents, and vacant households made more heat distress calls and Philadelphia heat mortality neighborhoods were more likely to have low housing values and a higher proportion of Black residents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optical properties of liquids for direct absorption solar thermal energy systems

TL;DR: A method for experimentally determining the extinction index of four liquids commonly used in solar thermal energy applications was developed in this paper, and the final value reported is the solar-weighted absorption coefficient for the fluids demonstrating each fluid's baseline capacity for absorbing solar energy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of Pavement Thermophysical Properties on Surface Temperatures

TL;DR: In this paper, a one-dimensional mathematical model was developed, based on the fundamental energy balance, to calculate the pavement near-surface temperatures using hourly measured solar radiation, air temperature, dew point temperature, and wind velocity data.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Built Environment Induced Urban Heat Island Effect in Rapidly Urbanizing Arid Regions - A Sustainable Urban Engineering Complexity

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on understanding the interdependency of the infrastructure used to support the growth of urban regions and their environmental, social and economic consequences with an emphasis on the rapidly urbanizing arid region of Phoenix, Arizona.

Reducing Urban Heat Islands: Compendium of Strategies - Cool Pavements

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the materials and cooling mechanisms of different paving materials that will store the heat less on pavements and diminish heat islands in urban and suburban areas, where impervious concrete and asphalt pavements heat up during the day and heat is released into the atmosphere at night.
