ENVI-met Simulations of the Effect of Different Landscape Design Scenarios on Pedestrian Thermal Comfort: Haydar Aliyev Street

In the city of Erzurum, located in a cold climate region, it is important for pedestrian walkways and parks to be usable all year round. Haydar Aliyev Street, on city's new development axis, serves as both route park. Meteorological data was collected hourly throughout 2021 using Vantage Pro 2 Plus device installed at height 1.5 m study area. The scenarios were analyzed ENVI-met BIO+ Science Software, with August (summer) January (winter) identified hottest coldest months, respectively. Sky View Factor (SVF) analysis conducted fisheye lens photos taken from different points Four landscape design created area, consisting plants, water surfaces, soil, grass. It found that temperature decreased by an average 0.2°C summer scenario when number plants increased 20%. Furthermore, determined deciduous tree provided better thermal comfort compared treeless soil pedestrian-friendly park during winter months. inactive increase wind speed maximum 1.3 s-1. concluded had impact outdoor further research needed this Such studies highlight need multidisciplinary teamwork create healthy, sustainable, livable urban environments designing thermal-comfortable spaces.
