  1. 1. Implementing spatial variance in the rate of photolytic breakdown of NO2 in urban street canyons

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Fabian Friberg; [2022]
    Keywords : cfd; computational fluid dynamics; NOx; street canyon; NO2; NO; O3; photolysis; OpenFOAM; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this study a module for calculating the solar exposure of individual fluid cells was developed to more accurately represent the effect of photolysis on the pollutant dispersion in an urban street canyon. The module was tested and validated on 12 different cases, each with a different geographical location, time of year and/or time of day. READ MORE

  3. 2. Adaptive facade, the active connection between indoor and outdoor

  5. 4. Wireless wave propagation in city street canyons

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Andrés Felipe Garcia Albarracin; [2017]
    Keywords : Channel modeling; Channel sounding; Local scattering function; Ray tracing.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This project aims to determine the characteristics of a wireless communication channel in city-street-canyon scenarios. The channel of a typical city intersection is modeled with a ray tracer and measured with a channel sounder. Then, the results of both tools are compared in terms of the local scattering function.

  6. 5. Vegetationens inverkan på det urbana klimatet : en studie om trädens effekt på en gatukanjonen i Malmö

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of People and Society

    Author : Linnea Saarela; [2016]
    Keywords : urbant lokalklimat; värmeö; klimatanpassning; mikroklimat; albedo; urban grönstruktur; evapotranspiration; termisk komfort;

    Abstract : Fysisk planering i Sverige har sedan länge inneburit att anpassa våra städer för ett kallt klimat. De pågående klimatförändringarna kommer dock kräva att den fysiska planeringen även omfattas av en anpassning för ett varmt sommarhalvårsklimat, där förekomsten av extrema väderhändelser kan komma att öka.
