The objective of this study is to define the effect of Bahía Blanca (Argentina) urban form and function on heat fluxes integrated in its energy balance at a local scale. The most frequent Local Climate Zones (LCZs) were identified in Bahía Blanca. Most of the LCZs are built types, corresponding to LCZ 1 and 2 in the microcenter, LCZ 3 in the macrocenter, and LCZ 6 and 9 in the city peri-urban area. The spatial distribution of Urban Energy Balance (UEB) was analyzed by calculating indices: the sensible heat index (χ), the evaporation index (γ), the storage index (Λ) and Bowen ratio (β). In the city central sectors there is a preponderance of sensible heat fluxes warming the atmosphere closest to the surface. Bahía Blanca estuary has the highest latent heat flux magnitudes, followed by coastal areas and islands associated. Peri-urban land surfaces and suburbs have greater magnitudes of latent heat flux since they are composed of a high percentage of permeable surfaces. A marked variability is observed in the daytime and nighttime Q_F anthropogenic heat fluxes, with maximums during the day. During the night, Q_F values decrease in magnitude throughout the urban area.

这项研究的目的是确定巴伊亚·布兰卡（阿根廷）城市形态和功能对热通量的影响，这些热通量在局部范围内综合了其能量平衡。巴伊亚布兰卡（BahíaBlanca）发现了最频繁的局部气候区（LCZ）。大多数LCZ是已建成的类型，分别对应于微中心的LCZ 1和2，大中心的LCZ 3和城市周边地区的LCZ 6和9。通过计算以下指标来分析城市能源平衡（UEB）的空间分布：显热指数（χ），蒸发指数（γ），存储指数（Λ）和鲍文比（β）。在城市中心地区，大量的显热通量使最接近地面的大气变暖。巴伊亚布兰卡河河口的潜热通量最高，其次是沿海地区和与之相关的岛屿。城郊土地表面和郊区的潜热通量更大，因为它们由高百分比的可渗透表面组成。在白天和晚上观察到明显的可变性Q _F人为热通量，白天最大。在夜间，Q _F值在整个市区范围内减小。
