| Popis: | There is a global trend to urbanize with Water Sensitive Urban Design systems. WSUDs try to integrate the urban water cycle in the urban design to improve the environmental behavior in the urbanization of the cities. Focusing on thermal behaviour and climate change effects mitigation, the question is: can WSUDs improve the environmental behavior of the cities while water cycle recovering through WSUDs? Some conclusions were exposed in CTV’18 related to thermal behavior of WSUDs with a high specific heat due to their water retention; however, this is not always the case. There are other parameters which explain thermal behavior for those WSUDs without the possibility to retain water where a high specific heat doesn’t exist. New measurements have been done during 2021 to go deeper into the parameters that affect thermal behavior of that second group of WSUDs such as: green and building shades, albedo, granulometry, and calculations related to thermal inertia have been done to compare those parameters and see how they can affect to WSUDs thermal behavior. Thus, this communication will expose these results and stablish a conclusion on how these parameters can improve thermal behavior to reduce surface temperatures and mitigate this effect of climate change. |
