Impact of Urban Canyon on
ENVI-met Model in the
the Micro Climate: A study through
Context of Dhanmondi, Dhaka
2. Objective of the Study
The objectives of the study are as follows
1. To understand the maximum impact of unban
canyon on the microclimate at a certain depth
from it.
2. To understand the impact of urban canyon on
the secondary roads
3. To investigate the effect of the spatial
variables on the air temperature (T), reiative
humidity (Rh), mean radiant temperature
(Tmrr) and wind velocity (V) in the
surrounding areas of this urban canyon by
field survey and simulation software.
3. Research Methodology
A linear segment of the Satmasjid road has been
randomly selected on the basis of the typical character
of the urban canyon with porosity and variations of
height in the urban fabric. The lingth of the urban
gallon for study area was determined according to
1:10 width-length ratio, where the width was 30m and
the length was taken for 400m from a node to another
node. The study also investigates the effect of the
spatial variables like road width, vegetal density,
boundary walls, variation in building heights and large
play ground on the temperature (T), relaiive humidity
(Rh), mean radiant temperature (Tmrt) and wind
velocity (V) in the surrounding areas of this urban
canyon by using simulation software ENVI_met ver.
3.1 BETA 5. Five points have been selected at a
distance from the urban canyon to validate the
simulation data and compare among them. These
points are identified as ,.Study
zones". The field
survey and simulation date has been done in the
month of August when pick air temperature can rise
up to 330 C during dayrime. the predicteJ data of Air
temperature (T), Relative humidity (Rh), Mean radiant
temperature (Tmrt) and Wind velocity (V) from the
simulation has been compared on thi basis of five
"Study zone" in four time segments from l0 A.M. to 4
P.M. The data regarding these five ,,Study
zones,,
shows the impact of urban canyon on the micro_
climate of the surrounding area.

Abstroct- Dhanmondi is one of the prime residential areas
of Dhaka City characterized by diverse road pattern with
primary, secondary and tertiary arteries, open spaces and
variation in porosity in urban fabric. Satmasjid road is the
prirnary road that runs through the Dhanmondi Residential
area and retains the character of the urban canyon of 30m_
40m width and 20m-40m enclosure on both sides. There are
vegetal canopy on road islands, robust open spaces and lakes
alongside. The paper is based on the study conducted to
understar.rd the impact of urban canyon on the micro-climate
ofthe, surrounding area through a field survey along with the
ENVI-met simulation model of the study area.
Key,words: Urban Canyon, Dhanmondi R/A, Microclimate,
ENVI-met model
1. Introduction
Dhanmondi is one of the well designed residential
areas of Dhaka, the Capital of Bangladesh. The area
was planned and developed in the early fifties with
large plots, wide roads and sound natural
environment. Though mostly residential, over the
years several commercial developments took place
alongside the main vehicular acceis roads. Satmasjid
road is the primary road that runs through ihe
Dhanmondi residential area and retains the character
of the urban canyon of 30m-40m width, 20m_40m
high enclosure in both sides, having vegetai canopy on
road_islands, robust open spaces and iakes alongsiae
it. However this road creates an urban corridor. The
core objective of the study is to understand the impact
of urban canyon on the micro climate of Dhanmondi
area. As a part of the study a field survey has been
done on a bright sunny day having the mlasurement
of air temperature, relative humidity and wind velocity
at several points in the urban canyon.
These data was also taken at a certain depth from it to
understand the micro climate due to the urban canyon
and porosity of the urban fabric. The study ilso
investigates the effect of the spatial variables on the
temperature (T), relative humidity (Rh), mean radiant
temperature (Tmrt) and wind velocity (V) in the
surrounding areas ofthis urban canyon by field survey
and simulation using ENVI-met software.

4. Field Investigation
The month of August was selected for the
investigation. Generally in this month the pick air
temperature can rise up to 330 C during daytime. The
field investigation was done in the urban canyon and
at a distance from it, i.e. in the secondary roads
connected with it. Field data of temperature (T) and
relative humidity (Rh) was measured in several points
from I I a.m. to 12 p.m. on 26th August in the selected
portion of the urban canyon [fig l]. Average Wind
velocity (V) was measured 1.5 m/s at lOm level. This
value is taken as the average wind velocity (V) in this
portion of urban canyon because at road level it was
inconsistent due to the air turbulences created by the
vehicular movement. As the size of the ponion of
urban canyon was determined according to l:10
width-length ratio, the length of the study area in
urban canyon was taken 400m where the width was
30m. Field data was also taken at about 120m distance
from the urban canyon to understand its impact on the
micro-climate of the surrounding area. From I I a.m.
to 12 p.m. average air temperature was found around
33.50 C and average Relative humidity (Rh) was 62%.
From the field data it has been observed that the air
temperature is 10 C -20 C higher in the secondary
roads at a distance from the urban canyon. Humidity
level varied in different points, e.g. spaces below the
vegetal canopy shows higher humidity level than the
spaces exposed to direct solar exposure.

5. Simulation by the ENVI-met
5.1. ENVI-met:
ENVI-met is a three-dimensional non-hydrostatic
microclimate model including a simple one
dimensional soil model, a radiative transfer model and
a vegetation model (Bruse and Fleer, 1998). The
software is developed by Prof. M. Bruse, University
of Mainz. The software runs on standard x86 personal
computer running Windows XP or Vista and does not
take advantage of more than one processor or
distributed computing []. Therefore the maximum
number of grid cells is quite limited and it is not
possible to simulate the micro-climate of whole cities
but only single quarters within. ENVI-met uses an
uniform mesh with a maximum of about 300x300x35
cells with the horizontal extension ranging between
0.5-l0m and a typical vertical height of 1-5m [2]. The
version of ENVI-met used in this study is a developer
version and contains some ameliorations and features
that are not available in the version 3.1 which is
currently available to the public. One of these new
features, the possibility to explicitly force the
meteorological parameters at the inflow boundaries, is
used in this study [3].

5.2. Model Area and simulation:
A linear segment of the Satmasjid road has been
raldomly selected on the basis of tire typical character
of.the urban canyon with porosity and' variations of
height in the urban fabric. The selected segment of the
road has
_a
large playground on the east side, plant
nursery alongside the boundary walls, l5m high trees
on the road islands and in the periphery ofthe canyon
in some places. The length oi th. urbun canyon for
study area was determined according to l:10 width_
Iength ratio, where the width was 30t and the length
was taken for 400m from a node to another node. For
the modeling an area of 320m X 400m has been
selected to assess the impact of the urban canyon on
the microclimate of this area. The selected area is
divided- in to 80 grids in X-axis and 100 grids in y-
axis where each grid is equal to 4m i +rn. fn,simulation was done in the date of field survey, i.e.
26tr' August, 2013 and the time s"g..nt-*u, tut"o
from 10 A.M. to 4 p.M. Total simuiation time was 6
hours where the data was taken at l0 A.M., 12p.M.,2
P.M. and 4 P.M. The tress in the road island was not
considered in simulation model as these trees were not
so large or dense to have significant impact on the
radiant temperature ofthe urban canyon.
Fig. 5: Simulated Air temperature at l2 p.M.
5.3. Validation of simulation output:
To compare the simulation result with the real world
data, five "Study zones".were picked up randomly
from the selected area adjacent L tne urbun .unyon.
The simulation result of air temperature and relative
humidity in these ,,Study
,on.r" at 12 p.M. was
compared with the field data taken from I I A.M. to 12
P.M. the comparison as follows
The temperature difference from the field data to
simulation data is maximum 2.5 K. Temperature
difference between field data and simulation'Oata in
study zone I and2 is very nominal as these zones are
inside the urban canyon. In the simulation, the distant
zones from the urban canyons like study zone 4 and 5
shows around 2.5 K temperature difference than the
field data. Hence, minimum temperature diitbrence
validates the simulation output.

The value of Avg. Wind velocity in field data has
nominal difference with the simulation outcome. In
zone 1,2 and 3 wind velocity at road level was
inconsistent due to the wind turbulences crealed by the
moving vehicles. Therefore, an average value was
taken as 1.5 m/s at 10m from ground level.

7. Observation and Findings
From the simulation result the following impact of
urban canyon has been observed, e.g.
Air Temperature: Air temperature increases with the
time from l0 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the entire area. The
parts of urban canyon where both side is enclosed by
the building masses, e.g. study zone 0l shows higher
temperature than other zones. Distant areas from
urban canyon like study zone 4 and 5 does not show
significant temperature variation from it.
Relative Humidity: Relative humidity decreases with
the time from l0 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the entire area.
Unlike the air temperature the parts of urban canyon
where both side is enclosed by the building masses,
e.g. study zone 0l shows lower relative humidity than
other zones. Distant areas from urban canyon like
study zone 4 and 5 show slightly higher variation in
relative humidity from it.
Mean Radiant Temperature: Mean Radiant
temperature increases with the time from 10 a.m. to 2
p.m. in the entire area. But it varies in different zones
at 4 p.m., especially where the building heights are
higher and have comparatively dense tree canopy.
Distant areas from urban canyon like study znne 4 and
5 does not show significant variation in mean Radiant
temperature from it. At 4 p.m., large show casting by
higher buildings and trees alongside the roads in zone
2, 3 and 4 have impact in reduced mean radiant
temperature.

Wind velocity: Wind velocity increases with the time
from
_10
a.m. to 4 p.m, in the entire are4 qspecially in
.zone 2 and 3. Both of these zones are inside the uiban
canyon and diagonal to the wind direction. The distant
areas from urban canyon like Zone 4 and 5 shows
noticeable drop in wind velocity probably begause of
obstaclos like buildings and large trees. Lbrge field in
the study area have significant impact on wind
velocity in entire area. Open space increases the flow
of wind and maintain a moderate wind velocity in the
urban canyon and its surrounding area. Another
ngtable finding is that, the wind velocity increases
with the rise of air temperature in the study zones of
urban canyon like zone 2 and zone 3.
8. Conclusion
The study was intended to understand the impact of
urban canyon on the micro climate of the surrounding
area. From the outcome of simulation in ENVI-met, iI
has been observed that the urban canyon has
significant impact in the Air temperature, Relative
humidity, Mean radiant temperature and Wind
velocity of the adjacent area of it. But the data from a
distance of approximately l00m from the urban
canyon shows slide changes in values from that of it.
Therefore, it can be summarized that the distant areas
froy urtan canyon has relatively lower temperature
and higher humidity level, which makes the
difference. But, in reality the micro-climate in the
distant area form the urban canyon might have notable
impact, as the urban canyon is alwayi crowded with
pedestrian traffic, fast moving cars, traffic
conjunctions at nodes and consta4t change in wind
velocity and radiant temperature.
