Description

As the global population shifts toward urban centers, city dwellers face increasing environmental challenges. Buildings often act as wind-breaks that reduce natural wind speeds, while anthropogenic heat contributes to the urban heat island effect. This book provides a detailed look at how to evaluate the urban wind environment to improve living conditions. Designed for professionals and students in urban planning and geography, this text covers essential methods for assessing ventilation performance and thermal comfort. It addresses the critical problem of weakened wind in dense areas and offers a framework for understanding how air-flow affects the health and comfort of urban populations. By studying these criteria, readers can better understand the relationship between urban design and the local climate.

Key Features

Evaluates urban wind environments to help address the reduction of wind speeds caused by dense building structures.

Provides methods for assessing ventilation performance and thermal comfort in modern urban settings.

Addresses the urban heat island effect and the impact of anthropogenic heat on city climates.

Organized into two clear parts covering Wind Environment and the Urban Environment and Criteria for Assessing Breeze Environments.

Offers technical insights into how urban design affects natural air-flow and resident well-being.
