“…The model includes the simulation of flows around and between buildings; the heat and vapor exchange processes of soil and wall surfaces; turbulence; vegetation parameters; bioclimatology; and contaminant dispersion (Bruse, 2009). The use of ENVI-met is widely validated both locally (Alchapar, 2014;Stocco, 2016;Sosa, 2017) and internationally (Tumini & Higueras, 2012;Tumini & Pérez Fargallo, 2015;Perini & Magliocco, 2014;Middel, et al, 2014;Yucekaya & Uslu, 2020). For the configuration of ENVI-met theoretical models, data are incorporated in the following main input files: • Area Input File: Created through a graphic interface, it contains data of the model's physical design values including the geographic location of the urban scheme, the building´s shape and size, the vegetation, and the real soil type conditions of the monitored case study as well as the receptors located in the proposed scheme.…”

The Metropolitan Area of Mendoza (MMA), Argentina, has extended towards peripheral hillside areas without considering the environmental impact of this action. This growth has continued the urban model of flatland development, causing changes in the ecosystem and an increase in outdoor air temperature. This work proposes and evaluates urban schemes that incorporate design criteria with the objective of preserving environmental characteristics and mitigating the effect of urbanization on the microclimate. The proposed grid layouts, located in three predominant slopes, were linear organic and Cul-de-Sac. Methodologically, the microclimatic response of the proposed schemes was evaluated by applying ENVI-met software simulation. The results show that urban growth is possible when carefully considering environmental limitations which grant maximum air temperature reductions of up to 2 °C.

“…De este modo es posible cuantificar las consecuencias de las decisiones de diseño sobre el medio urbano y edilicio (13) (14). Entre las herramientas de simulación disponibles se encuentran: SUNtool, SOLENE, RayMan, URSOS (15), Autodesk Ecotect Analysis 2010 (16). De modo específico, el software ENVI-met, permite la evaluación dinámica de los fenómenos de transferencia de masa y energía a escala urbana, y ha demostrado ser un modelo solvente en términos de su capacidad para la representación adecuada de los fenómenos que ocurren en diferentes entornos urbanos; tomando como parámetro su grado de ajuste con las mediciones en campo.…”

RESUMENEste trabajo tiene como objetivo determinar el potencial de las estructuras que componen las plazas verdes urbanas: arbolado de gran porte, áreas de césped y superficies selladas de forma aislada. Con este fin se evaluó el comportamiento ambiental de una plaza compuesta al 100% por cada estructura. Para la caracterización térmica y radiativa se realizaron simulaciones con ENVI-met 3.1. Los resultados muestran que la cobertura de la plaza con arbolado de gran porte al 100% mejora las condiciones de habitabilidad durante el día y presenta las menores temperaturas durante la noche, con diferencias de hasta 3.50°C respecto de la peor configuración (superficie sellada 100%). Si bien es imprescindible que las plazas contengan estructuras selladas para dar respuesta a sus requerimientos funcionales, desde el punto de vista ambiental, las plazas debieran priorizar en sus diseños grupos de árboles de gran porte y disminuir la presencia de estructuras selladas.Palabras clave: Plazas verdes, Simulación numérica, ENVI-met 3.1, Árboles de gran porte. ABSTRACT This investigation aims to determine the potential of each of the structures that make up the urban squares

This research is the product of the monitoring carried out from year 2019 to 2020 about the environmental parameters that determine the person´s comfort in six low-cost housing in Ciudad Valles, San Luis Potosí, México. These buildings were built in 1985, 1987, 1990, 1997, 2006 and 2008 respectively, between 1972 to 2006, foundation of INFONAVIT and CONAVI respectively, period of interest to analyze the thermal behavior of materials as block and concrete, which transcend the time due to their industrialization characteristics rather than their benefits in the person´s termal confort. The main objective is analyzes and demonstrate the thermal confort evolution provided by these classic materials in the hygrothermal environment, in order to suggest adjustments to improve it. the research questions are next; Do the classic materials provide a comfortable environment? How is the evolution of thermal comfort in the interior of the low-cost housing when building them with cement block and concrete? And if not; What are the recommendations to generate a better thermal environment? With the support of the PRODEP 2018 Program, some measuring equipment is obtained that are used to record the relative humidity, temperature, wind speed and temperature of the materials like the floor, the roof and the walls.
