WP‐3 Urban Climate: Dr. H.‐P. Thamm, FU‐Berlin

Action Field 1: Environment and planning



Goal of the WP:

Assessing urban climate for optimised urban planning

• A step to a liveable city – climate comfort

• Develop and applying adapted methods for assessing urban climate and impacts on urban climate

• Regional scale (development plan) to local scale (building level)

• Reducing costs for air conditioning

Recent situation in HCM-City • Rapid growing city

• Tremendous changes in land use and land cover

• Climate change

• Reduced ventilation

• Increasing pollution

and sensible)Components radiation balanceB: Direct sun radiation D: Diffuse sun radiationR: reflected radiation (short wave)A: Thermal radiation atmosphereE: Thermal radiation surfaceEkm: Thermal radiation (human)




Relevance for other workgroups Relevant input for climate function maps (WP 1)

Setup of a urban development scheme in regional scale (green areas, alignment of buildings..)

Climate optimized building design – local scale (material, ventilation,.…)

Reducing costs for climatisation

Connection with traffic planning (e.g. roads as ventilation paths)



Thank you for your attention!


Modelling urban climate


Available Model• “PMV” – Fanger • “Klima-Michel” – Jendritzki• MUKLIMO• MEMI• MM5• Etc.

Various models availableProblem: • Complex • hard to parameterise• not user friendly

Adaption of methods which are scientific sound but applicable in a urban planning context

Assessing the Urban Climate of HCM CityParameter: temperature, humidity, wind, radiation

Measurement station.High temporal resolution. Low spatial relevance

Satellite images.High spatial resolution. Low temporal resolution. Day and Night
