Influence of the façades convective heat transfer coefficients on the thermal energy demand for an urban street canyon building
In an urban micro-climate environment, the convective heat transfer coefficient (CHTC) on the façades influences simulated building's energy demand and exterior wall surfaces temperatures. In this paper, it is analyzed how the CHTC values on the façades of a building located in an urban canyon influence the façades temperatures and how important is the choice of an accurate CHTC correlation on the space cooling and heating energy demand.
