| Résumé | Fast urbanizations have been adding to natural land surfaces with large vertical structures and imperious grounds creating higher temperatures in urban areas than the surroundings. Extreme heat events in the urban areas are also projected to occur more frequently and last longer as a result of global warming. Therefore, the evaluation of the impacts from these future weather events on urban dwellers and the understanding of building resilience in terms of energy consumption becomes important at the moment. In this study, a 1 km resolution Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model is developed for the Montreal city and validated by field monitored data. The validated model will be used to dynamically downscale future projections of climate made around the city to evaluate the overheating conditions based on building energy simulations. The indoor thermal conditions of 15 hospital and 12 school buildings are evaluated using modified DOE reference model in Energyplus according to the current National Building Code of Canada 2015. The observed weather data at five existing weather stations in the Montreal area is used for the validation of the mesoscale model. The model selections in the WRF simulation are discussed according to the validation results. With the final outputs, relevant climate-adaptation technologies can be selected for similar building types to overcome potential overheating risks for occupants and reduce building energy demands for future buildings. |
