Urbanization gradually results in the deterioration of the quality of life. One of the main reasons for deterioration in the comfort level is the heat island effect. In Taiwan where there is high population density on a small piece of land, the phenomenon of high temperature in urban area is especially evident. In recent studies, it has been found that green land, vegetation, pervious pavement and water bodies can regulate a micro-climate because of their high thermal capacity. Those elements can effectively absorb a large quantity of heat and reduce the air temperature (Sun, 2010; Lin, et al., 2001). The present study selected Taichung Gateway Park as an example specifying heat flux and tree porosity under different conditions. Through simulation, the effect on the thermal environment of different pavements and tree porosities was investigated. The experimental results including heat flux of various pavements and wind speeds at pedestrian level were used for the specification of boundary elements in CFD calculations. After validation, parameter studies were carried out under other conditions. Part of the results shows the highest pavement temperature can reach approximately 177.7% compared to the reference temperature. The use of pervious pavement with trees can reach a maximum of a 25.9% difference from the reference temperature. |
