Abstract

In this paper, microclimate around a pedestrian with a parasol in an outdoor space in the summer season were examined by using CFD analysis. Three computational cases were carried out in the present analysis. In Case1, we examined the microclimate around a pedestrian without a parasol in Case1, while a pedestrian with a parasol held vertically in Case2. Additionally, in Case3, the zenith angle of the axis of the parasol was closed to the incident angle to the sun, compared with Case2. Meteorological conditions for the present analysis were assumed to be high noon on a typical scorching hot day in August in Tokyo. Through the examinations, it was clarified that implementing parasols affects both the flow and the temperature fields around a pedestrian. Future direction of this study is to implement a multi-node human thermoregulation model to the present computational method.
