Journal ArticleDOI
An investigation of urban heat island intensity (UHII) as an indicator of urban heating
TL;DR: In this article, the reliability of urban heat island intensity (UHII) as an indicator of urban heating was evaluated and discussed, and the diurnal patterns of air and surface-temperature based UHII and variations in urban and rural area heating were analyzed and discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of building aspect ratio and wind speed on air temperatures in urban-like street canyons
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional Renormalization Group (RNG) k-ɛ turbulence model is employed to solve the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) and energy transport equations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative analysis of building insulation material properties and performance
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparative analysis of building insulation materials properties (thermal, hygroscopic, acoustic, reaction to fire, environmental, and cost) and their performance in different climate zones and proposed an optimization framework.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal comfort assessment and application of radiant cooling : A case study
TL;DR: A field assessment of thermal comfort was conducted at Mehran University of Engineering and Technology, situated in the subtropical region of Pakistan as discussed by the authors, which showed that people of the area were feeling thermally comfortable at effective temperature of 29.85°C (operative temperature 29.3°C).
Journal ArticleDOI
Impacts of environmental factors on urban heating.
TL;DR: Analysis of meteorological parameters for fifteen years at a well developed and densely populated commercial area (Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong) demonstrated strong negative correlation between the UHII and wind speed but nonegative correlation between UCII and solar radiation attenuation.
