Two Sides

Wuhan is a typical representative of the big cities belted along with Yangtze River, We can collect relevant date, analyze the situation of wind and thermal environment in this area, by field measurement on the two typical blocks beside the river, to get to grasp the actual effect of river wind on the waterfront.With the study on the adjustment rule of the large-scare water to the micro-climate, the guidance for the urban planning based on the climatic adaptation could be putted forward.

The special climate effects of waterbody have greater influence on the micro-climate of waterfront. Therefore, taking a typical block alongside Yangtze River as example, the researchers make the field measurement of micro-climate at fixed locations and analyze cooling effect of river wind. It aims to find out the micro-climate adjustment mechanism of Yangtze River, thus providing a guidance for urban planning and architecture design.

With the development of the economy in China, the tourism industry has become a form of daily entertainment for citizens. Commercial pedestrianized blocks have been designed as recreational centers for tourists, serving as outdoor public space and scenic spots. The use of these regions is directly determined by the outdoor thermal environment. So far, few studies have been conducted on tourists’ thermal experience in commercial pedestrianized blocks, especially in the hot and humid region of southern China. Using field measurement and numerical simulation of a commercial pedestrianized block in Fo Shan, China, to research tourists’ thermal experience under different conditions, the final results of this study could help to select the most suitable time for tourist travel and help local managers to improve the thermal environment.

Climatic Adaptability

Yangtze River Valley is situated within the Hot Summer and Cold Winter zone, and residents in this region of China would require HVAC system to alleviate thermal comfort conditions, although this is tempered by the Design Code (DBJ50-071-2007) for energy efficiency. A 1-year survey of about 200 residential homes was carried out in eight cities covering the breadth of the region. The acceptable temperature range for the residents in this area was 16.3—28.1°C and the thermal neutral temperature was found to be 27.6°C in summers and 17.5°C in winters. People in different area can vary in their adaptability and comfortableness. Therefore, there is a need to investigate the national comfort parameter introduced in the Code for Design of Heating and Ventilation and Air Conditioning (GB50019-2003). The results found that if air-conditioning system was set to 27.5°C instead of 26°C as required by GBJ19-87: Design Standard of Heating and Ventilation and Air Conditioning, a 16.5% saving of energy consumption could be achieved. The findings demonstrated the role of natural ventilation in the expansion of the thermal comfort zone for the residents, especially during the summer seasons. A climatic adaptability model has been established by this study to contribute to the passive climatic design strategies for a better economic and energy efficiency of buildings.

Design Methods

To study the thermal environment of the greenway in Guangzhou, a field measurement was taken and a series parameters were measured such as air temperature, relative humidity (RH), the surface temperature of the underlying and the WBGT. The measurement studied the effect of grass, shrub, arbor and water to the different underlying pattern which were water permeable brick (WP brick), cement, asphalt and tile and discussed the design methods of the greenway thermal environment.
