The study aims to develop artificial neural networks for prediction of outdoor thermal comfort using meteorological parameters as input parameters. Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) is used the target parameter. For this purpose, a total number 5088 hours field monitoring data was considered from four representative urban streets Gwalior city, India. First, linear association determined be...

The modelling of thermal exposure in outdoor urban environments is a highly topical challenge modern climate research. This paper presents the results derived from new micrometeorological model that employs an integrated biometeorology module to Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI). PALM-4U, which includes human body-shape parameterization, deployed herein for pilot domain Prague, Czech Repub...

Ultra Violet (UV) parasols are a reasonable countermeasure against heat stress as they portable and inexpensive. This study compared the mitigation effect of UV parasol with that street trees dry-mist spraying on hot humid summer day in Japan. We observed meteorological elements calculated universal thermal climate index (UTCI) wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) under parasol, trees, spraying, d...

Surface characteristics play a vital role in simulations for urban bioclimatic conditions. Changing relationships and distribution patterns of sealed vegetated surfaces as well building geometry across different scales environments influence surface temperatures. Cities comprise forms, which, depending on their characteristics, enhance the heating process, increasing emergence heat islands (UHI...

An increase in urban vegetation is an often proposed mitigation strategy to reduce heat and improve outdoor thermal comfort (OTC). Vegetation can alter microclimate through changes air temperature, mean radiant humidity, wind speed. In this study, we model how street tree ground cover their structural, optical, interception, physiological traits control the diurnal cycle of OTC different densit...

In order to solve the limitations of horizontal thermal environment improvement, this study compared indoor and outdoor a building in summer according presence or absence green curtain, vertical greening method. 2021, air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, shortwave longwave radiation were measured at central point inside grass field outside determine human sensation index, PET UTCI. A...

Three different clothing thermal resistance (r cl) schemes are compared using meteorological and human data collected in Martonvásár. Model 1 is the most complex, it energy balance based. 3 simplest, UTCI-clothing model used as submodel UTCI (Universal Thermal Climate Index) scheme. It uses air temperature sole input. 2 more than 3, insulation values of worn. Meteorological refer to town The we...
