Assessment of thermal indices applicability in Cyprus

Pantavou K., Giallouros G., Lykoudis S., (Corresponding) Nikolopoulos G.
Topic: 
Environmental data analysis and modelling
Thermal indices are commonly used to assess outdoor thermal environments. This study aims to examine the applicability of popular thermal indices for the assessment of thermal sensation in Cyprus. Field surveys were conducted in outdoor public sites in five districts of the Republic of Cyprus. The...Read more

Validation of ENVI-met microscale model with in-situ measurements in warm thermal conditions across Athens area

Koletsis I., Tseliou A., Lykoudis S., Tsiros I., Lagouvardos K., Psiloglou B., Founda D., (Corresponding) Pantavou K.
Topic: 
Environmental data analysis and modelling
Validation is critical for quantifying accuracy, errors and limitations of models’ results. This study examines the ability of ENVI-met model to simulate thermal conditions in high spatial resolution. Field measurements from 11 central sites (squares and parks) across the greater area of Athens,...Read more

A model-based study on the impact of different tree configurations on the thermal conditions of an urban square

Tseliou A., Koletsis I., Thoma E., Proutsos N., Lykoudis S., (Corresponding) Pantavou K., Tsiros I.
Topic: 
Environmental data analysis and modelling
The number of studies on mitigation and adaptation strategies aiming at the improvement of the urban microclimate increased remarkably during the last decades. Most studies are focusing on the impact of various design layouts, on thermal environment and pedestrians’ thermal sensation. The present...Read more

Study of the Airflow Around the Occupants in a Virtual Chamber Equipped with Impingement Ventilation System

(Corresponding) Conceição E., Conceição M., Lúcio M., Gomes J., Ramos A., Awbi H.
Topic: 
Environmental data analysis and modelling
The study of the airflow around the occupants in a virtual chamber equipped with impingement ventilation system is made. This numerical study is carried out using a coupling of an integral numerical model, that simulates human thermal response systems, and differential numerical model, that...Read more
