The aim of the project is to develop a multi-sector urban development impact model, which combines findings from the social, natural and engineering sciences to identify the effects that cities have on their inhabitants.
The Simple Urban Radiation Model (SURM) is a model to
calculate mean radiant temperature in an idealised symmetric
street canyon.
The model can be used either stand-alone with standard meteorological
The model can be used either stand-alone with standard meteorological
parameters as inputs or for radiation modifications in a built-up area
with radiation fluxes from a mesoscale model or measurements.
