Buildings located in an urban area influence each other: (1) solar radiation affected by shading from nearby buildings, (2) solar reflection and absorption, (3) longwave radiant heat exchange. In addition, these buildings release heat to the surrounding environment and change the local microclimate (ambient air temperature and humidity) which in turn influences building energy demand. Nearby buildings may be served by a district energy system to meet their aggregated demands. This seminar presents and analyzes these inter-building effects which are essential to consider when designing or retrofitting a district of urban buildings for performance improvements.
