Abstract
En 中文
• We proposed analytical view factor solutions for urban canopy models with trees • Analytical solutions match Monte Carlo ray tracing results with near-perfect agreement • The proposed approach is robust across geometry, transmissivity, and step size • A case study in NYC demonstrates enhanced tree cooling under heat wave conditions • Humidification from trees elevates wet-bulb temperature despite decrease in heat index
Keywords:
view factor
urban canopy model
tree cooling
heat wave
