Evaluation of Water Retentive Pavement as Mitigation Strategy for Urban Heat Island Using Computational Fluid Dynamics
Here we evaluated the effect of using water retentive pavement or WRP made from fly ash as material for main street in a real city block. We coupled computational fluid dynamics and pavement transport (CFD-PT) model to examine energy balance in the building canopies and ground surface. Two cases of...
