Abstract:

This thesis characterizes cool surface strategies in criteria of definition, classification and application approach, as well as proposes of a framework to guide applications associate with grey infrastructure and blue-green infrastructure on UHI mitigation. As a case study, all of analysis regarding to surface strategy and its cooling performance are applied on campus of Technical University of Kosice. On perspective of economical and ecological feasibility, two proposals were simulated. The simulation results show that both measurements have significant impact on surface cooling, for both peak and mean temperature reduction. In addition, overall value of each proposal is provided as reference for decision makers to meet their best interests. All these findings can support climate change adaptation strategy in Kosice, should be also applicable for similar projects in other regions.
