How can we combine urban cooling strategies to effectively cool cities over the entire diurnal cycle?

Journal Article Anand, Jyothis ; Sailor, David J. - Building and Environment

The urban heat island effect generally peaks in the night/evening hours and, in some cases, an urban cool island effect during daytime has been reported. These patterns are observed mainly because of the widespread use of impervious and thermally massive materials (like concrete and asphalt) in the built environment and their ability to store energy during the daytime and release it at night. Unfortunately, most urban cooling strategies, such as cool (white), green, and blue spaces, provide better thermal performance during the daytime than at night. Hence, such solutions are not ideal for nighttime heat mitigation. In this study, wemore »« less

Water Footprint of European Rooftop Photovoltaic Electricity based on Regionalised Life Cycle Inventories

Technical Report Stolz, Philippe ; Frischknecht, Rolf ; Heath, Garvin A. ; ...

The water use of photovoltaic (PV) electricity has been investigated in very few studies so far, which may be due to the low water demand of PV systems during operation. In this study, the water consumption and water withdrawal of electricity generated by PV systems were assessed by considering all life cycle stages and by taking account of country-level regional differences in water availability. The life cycle inventories of the manufacture of monocrystalline silicon (mono-Si) and cadmium telluride (CdTe) PV modules are based on data collected between 2010 and 2013 and take account of the shares of different countries inmore »« less

Effects of urban emission control strategies on the export of ozone and ozone precursors from the urban atmosphere to the troposphere

Journal Article Duncan, B N ; Chameides, W L - Journal of Geophysical Research

An urban plume model is used to simulate the photochemistry of ozone (O{sub 3}) precursors and the concomitant generation of O{sub 3} within an urban plume as it advects and mixes with the background atmosphere. On the basis of these calculations, we estimate the rates at which O{sub 3} and its precursor compounds are exported to the background atmosphere and how these export rates are affected by various control strategies that might be implemented to reduce maximum O{sub 3} concentrations within the urban plume. Two model cities with different chemical characteristics are considered: case 1, where peak O{sub 3} concentrationsmore »« less

Urban rooftop solar greenhouse

Conference Golubov, M - Proc. Annu. Meet. - Am. Sect. Int. Sol. Energy Soc.; (United States)

This project involved the schematic design, performance simulation and cost/benefit analysis of an 1120 square foot greenhouse to be built by a self help housing group on top of a 6 story New York City apartment building. Computer programs simulating thermal performance, daylighting conditions and economic performance were used in the study.
Implementation of rooftop reciculation parameterization into the QUIC fast response urban wind model

Conference Bagal, N ; Singh, B ; Pardyjak, E R ; ...

The QUIC (Quick Urban & Industrial Complex) dispersion modeling system has been developed to provide high-resolution wind and concentration fields in cities. The fast response 3D urban wind model QUIC-URB explicitly solves for the flow field around buildings using a suite of empirical parameterizations and mass conservation. This procedure is based on the work of Rockle (1990). The current Rockle (1990) model does not capture the rooftop recirculation region associated with flow separation from the leading edge of an isolated building. According to Banks et al. (2001), there are two forms of separation depending on the incident wind angle. Formore »« less
