Numerical Evaluation of the Impact of Green Wall on the Outdoor Thermal Environment

摘要

Green Wall has an important effect on the outdoor thermal environment quality and the thermal comfort of pedestrian. Rational layout and green design can effectively alleviate the negative impact of "Heat Island", reducing the heating and air conditioning energy consumption of the buildings. This paper established building models with different type of layouts, and Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) technology is carried out to study the effects of different layouts of buildings and Green Wall distribution on the thermal environment on the basis of wet black globe thermometer (WBGT) index.
