Research on Energy Saving Design of Urban Planning under Climatic Environment Influence

Abstract:

City climate, as one of the important component of city environment, plays an important role in affecting city space environment and urban planning. Taking the city Wu Han as a case, this paper introduces how to apply the CFD simulation of the digital model of metropolis to thermal environment study. Based on the phenomena of the thermal environment, tropical island effect and analysis, effective simulation results and the appropriate measures are given. Based on the analysis, some technical measures were discussed, such as city distribution, space shape and open space. According to the proof analysis, these measures are effective methods to improve the thermal environment of metropolis, and it is helpful to deal with the climate adaptability problems and energy saving design of the city.
