Research Abstract |
To simulate the vicious interaction between urban warming and increase of air conditioning energy demand predicted in Asian low-latitudinal cities, we have developed a numerical combined model of urban climate and building energy consumption. As a case study, the model was applied to Delhi with a successful reproduction of the present state of its urban climate which was clarified through our meteorological observations. Finally, it was confirmed that the model could quantify the cooling energy saving potential in Asian low-latitudinal cities taking into account the possible urban climate change and its impact on air conditioning energy demand under future scenarios like urban population growth.
