Research Abstract |
It is thought that by replacing with permeable pavements increases the evaporative cooling of surfaces and the extensive use of permeable paving could improve the urban climate. In this study, moisture properties of porous concrete were measured and approximate equations were obtained. Numerical analysis on thermal behavior of various pavement materials using the simultaneous heat and moisture transfer model are conducted. Evaporative cooling effect evaluation for porous pavements were conducted.
