Abstract

The study aims to assess the wind behavior and its effect on the thermal sensation in urban canyons of the historic center of Cuenca. The methodology is based on the selection of case studies of the functional unit of the historical center to assemble simplified models according to the height/width (H/W) ratio and east-west and north-south directions. These models are simulated through the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), whose calculation uses values from the wind for the month of greater intensity and according to prevailing speeds and directions. The results show that the geometric relationship affects the change in wind speed and therefore modifies the apparent temperature inside it, which may increase or decrease up to 4 °C depending on the H / W ratio, orientation and time of day.

厄瓜多尔昆卡历史中心城市峡谷的风和表观温度特征
本研究旨在评估昆卡历史中心城市峡谷中的风行为及其对热感的影响。该方法基于历史中心功能单元的案例研究,根据高宽比以及东西和南北方向组装简化模型。这些模型是通过应用计算流体动力学(CFD)进行模拟的,计算流体动力学的计算使用强度较大月份的风值,并根据盛行速度和方向。结果表明,几何关系会影响风速的变化,从而改变风速内的表观温度,根据H/W比、方位和一天中的时间,表观温度可能会升高或降低到4°C。

期刊介绍: Conservar Património is a journal, published three times a year, that intends to create a space for the diffusion of conservator-restorers’ studies and activities. However, at a time when Conservation-Restoration pretends to develop further through collaboration with other areas of knowledge, such as History of Art, Archaeology, Museum Studies, Chemistry, Physics, Biology and other related disciplines from the fields of the natural and social sciences, the journal also receives contributions from any other provenance as long as directed towards the multiple dimensions of the works that integrate our Cultural Heritage. Theoretical issues on the conservation activity may also be submitted.
