Abstract:
This paper selects two streets with different orientations and different aspect ratios as the research area, using ENVI-met software to simulate the effect of trees' canopy occupation on thermal comfort at the pedestrian height. The results show that the trees' canopy occupation ratio (TCR) influences the average air temperature. Tree planting raises air temperature both at noon and afternoon, while dropping it in the morning. For the two streets, when TCR is greater than a certain value, continuing to increase trees' canopy occupation has no significant impact on air temperature. Therefore, larger canopy occupancy of trees does not necessarily cool air temperature. More treeing even worsens the thermal comfort, especially in the streets with a large aspect ratio. © 2022 IEEE.
