Planning Apartment Complexes to Enhance Thermal Environment

Environmental pollution becomes a serious problem in urban areas. Moreover, densely constructed strictures can be problematic to cities due to the rising temperature they cause as well as the increasing accumulation of air pollutants they generate by interrupting airflow. In order to improve residential amenity, it is necessary to improve the thermal environment by preserving wind corridors. To do so requires consideration to important aspects such as building arrangement, scale, vegetation, and land cover, which all have an effect on wind corridors. In this study, a typical arrangement-complex, which is the primary form of housing in Korea, was selected as a case ENVI-met. As a result of empirical analysis, the optimal apartment-complex arrangement that is most suitable for mitigating urban heat-islands phenomenon was determined, The outcome of this study can be utilized as a planning technique for apartment-complex construction in consideration to type of buildings, scale of buildings, and land cover.
