  • Abstract:
    This dissertation presents a computerized simulation model that analyzes the energy interactions between built-up sites and patterns of wind flows and solar radiation. The model computes the wind and solar exposure of the various buildings that make up a typical urban site, under alternative climatic conditions, while accounting for sun and wind shadowing impacts among buildings. The methodology for computing sun and wind shadows, and the resulting site energy budget, is presented. The model is applied to assess the energy budget of layouts of the same structures on the same site and an improved site is designed.
