Summer outdoor thermal benchmarks in Melbourne: Applications of different techniques

نویسندگان

چکیده

In urban planning, sustainability is often synonymous to livability. Urban livability seeks improve living conditions of current and future outdoor users hence it has become a key priority for cities authorities. Melbourne, as the world second most livable city, sets out its life quality through various policies initiatives. One area improvement creation sustainable spaces that provides comfortable thermal residents. The relevant strategies create such are supported by knowledge human comfort requirements, particularly during summer conditions. Hence, this study aims develop comprehensive benchmarks Melbourne summer. This builds on 4717 subjective survey responses collected in seven environments with different settings. Data collection was performed Melbourne's from 2012 2015. Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET) used predict results were based four measures (neutral temperature, preferred acceptable range range). analysis' outcomes suggested between 11.3 °C 20.3 °C, temperature value 21.5 neutral 16.1 °C. Furthermore, PET index calibrated against surveys. would help inform aiming pleasant Melbourne.

Thermal Imaging for Robotic Applications in Outdoor Scenes

This report describes thermal imaging techniques to identify different types of materials in outdoor scenes. First, we present the model that we developed to calculate the temperature of materials. By applying this model, we show how to calculate thermal inertia, a key physical characteristic of the material. Second, we analyze how applying vision segmentation algorithms to thermal images allow...

The Role of Vegetation in Moderating Outdoor Thermal Sensation: The Case of Sistan Region

The subject of outdoor thermal comfort has been researched since 1970. Due to its differences with indoor thermal comfort, it must be assessed with the proper indices. Also, the outdoor thermal comfort of each geographical region must be assessed independently. This research aims to study the measurement indices of outdoor thermal comfort and subsequently determine the most relevant index to as...
