Over time, urban dwellers have become increasingly concerned with the thermal characteristics in their neighbourhood. Modern Asian cities with their environmental diversity have introduced complexity to urban heat island (UHI) predictions. This research aimed to discover the relative contribution of different environmental and anthropogenic parameters to the UHI intensity in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Four days of temperature and wind data were collected from seven sites representing various land covers inside and outside the city. Besides, humidity and solar radiation time traces were gathered from selected sites. Delicate weather measuring equipment, such as ultrasonic anemometers, were used with existing equipment at Malaysia’s Meteorological Department (Met. Department). Results showed a 6 °C UHI intensity at nighttime and a 4 °C urban cool island intensity at daytime. The effect of land cover on UHI dominates the effects of other factors, including wind speed and turbulence. This modern Asian urban configuration consisting of a few high-rise buildings surrounded by plant and water patches mitigates the UHI through evapotranspiration and shading.

现代热带吉隆坡的城市热岛:不同参数的比较权重

随着时间的流逝,城市居民越来越关注其邻里的热特性。具有环境多样性的现代亚洲城市为城市热岛(UHI)的预测引入了复杂性。这项研究旨在发现马来西亚吉隆坡不同环境和人为参数对UHI强度的相对贡献。从代表城市内外各种土地覆盖的七个地点收集了四天的温度和风数据。此外,还从选定的地点收集了湿度和太阳辐射的时间轨迹。精致的气象测量设备(例如超声波风速计)已与马来西亚气象局(气象局)的现有设备配合使用。结果显示6°夜间C UHI强度为4 °C城市白天的凉爽岛屿强度。土地覆盖对UHI的影响主导其他因素的影响,包括风速和湍流。这种现代的亚洲城市布局由几栋高高耸立的建筑物组成,周围环绕着植物和水域,通过蒸散和遮荫减轻了UHI。
