4 Introduction: Urban scales Sketch of the urban boundary layer structure indicating the various (sub)layers and their names. (Rotach et al., 2004; modified after Oke, 1987) Spatial and temporal scales of atmospheric phenomena and how these phenomena are treated in Reynolds-averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) mesoscale or obstacle resolving microscale models (right columns).

22 Conclusion -ANSYS CFD helps to solve design issues in the field of urban design, building and architecture (thermal comfort, urban morphologies, urban heat island). What we hope for: -Better hexahedral + prism meshing for the field. -Availability of built material properties, models (thermal comfort), wizards (wind profile). -Realistic tree models (shading and evapotranspiration). -Better integration with mesoscale (Weather Research Forecasting), microscale (Urban Canopy Model) & building scale (EnergyPlus) simulations. Schematic representation of the six spatial scales in urban physics, their typical maximum horizontal length scales and associated model categories. NWP = Numerical Weather Prediction; MMM = Mesoscale Meteorological Model; CFD = Computational Fluid Dynamics; BES = Building Energy Simulation; BC-HAM = Building Component e Heat, Air, Moisture transfer; MSM = Material Science Model; HTM = Human Thermophysiology Model.
