Integrating courtyard microclimate in building performance to mitigate extreme urban heat impacts
(Elsevier, 2022)
Extreme heat events are expected to occur more often as a consequence of climate change. This paper quantifies the impact of urban climate on building performance and evaluates the benefits of specific microclimates, ...

Thermal comfort modelling and empirical validation of predicted air temperaturein hot-summer Mediterranean courtyards
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Courtyards are a passive strategy to improve the energy performance of buildings. However, theaccurate simulation of courtyards’ thermodynamic performance in the early design stage is still chal-lenging, even though there ...

Extending the adaptive thermal comfort models for courtyards
(Elsevier, 2021-10)
Temperatures in Mediterranean cities are rising due to the effects of climate change, with a consequent increase in the heat waves frequency. Recent research has shown the tempering potential of semi-outdoor spaces such ...

Simulation workflow for considering the outdoor microclimate in building energy modeling
(Cal-Tek, 2023)
In order to accurately analyze building energy performance, it is important to take into account the outdoor microclimate. However, this can be challenging when different microclimates affect the same building using existing ...

Comparison and Validation of Two Simulation Workflows for Courtyard Microclimates
(Universidad de La Coruña, 2020)
The simulation of urban microclimates in a way that is flexible enough to be included in the early design stages is still a problem to be solved. Furthermore, the necessity to find a balance between accuracy, provided by ...

Cross-evaluation of thermal comfort in semi-outdoor spaces according to geometry in Southern Spain
(Elsevier, 2023-05)
Climatic events in Mediterranean cities, such as heat waves, directly affect their inhabitants. As a result, outdoor thermal comfort in urban spaces is gaining increasing research attention because it is associated with ...
