Abstract
Urban spaces are characterized by specific microclimates that change wind speed, temperature and vapor pressure fields, which are essential parameters for building energy simulation (BES). To take into account the impact of the urban environment on building energy demand, we propose to couple a CFD model to a BES model. The CFD model is used to simulate airflow around the buildings and to calculate input parameters for the BES model. The proposed coupling method is investigated in two different urban morphologies highlighting the impact of urban environment on the BES input parameters.
