How to make a combined sun and wind analysis for your public space
Often, the micro-climate comfort is dependent on not only solar access or shade, but also wind effects. Therefore, it is useful to do a sun analysis as well as a wind analysis, and then combine the results of those. This helps you determine the best places of different functions in an urban area.
When you do a wind analysis, it is beneficial to model different scenarios, just as you do in a sun analysis. You can for instance model different wind speeds, and wind coming from different directions.
