summary |
The urban environment is nothing but the product of the permanent interaction between the physical elements that make up the urban space and the corresponding climatic factors. This relationship is similar to a chemical reaction, hence the difficulty of anticipating and dealing with such complex relationships. As a result, designers resort to the use of simulation software. Designers in the area of urban design must be fully aware of the ways to use these programs optimally and check the impact of the use of green elements within urban spaces in advance during the design process before practical implementation. This paper aims to integrate the design of urban spaces with the simulation of climatic behavior using ENVI-met climatic simulation software. It also aims to determine the impact of using the optimal ratio of green elements in urban spaces on the thermal comfort of their users (using two example urban spaces at the American University in New Cairo and Princess Noura University in Riyadh). |
