众所周知，城市化对当地气候有重大影响。城市地区的气候与附近农村地区的气候不同。对城市环境的相关属性的修改将扩大或缩小这些差异。一系列国际研究表明，城市环境的改变对建筑物的能源使用产生了重大影响。目前正在对联合王国的这些问题进行详细研究，并简要讨论了这些新的研究。目前，人们对试图改善城市夏季潜在的过热现象很感兴趣，重点是热浪的后果。然而，还应考虑更广泛的情况。在英国的夏季，城市热岛（UHI）往往会导致冷却负荷增加和过热导致的死亡人数增加。但在冬季，城市热岛效应往往会导致供暖负荷减少，与寒冷有关的过度死亡人数减少。在考虑大规模的城市改造时，必须考虑到这些影响的净效应。(C)2008年，女王的打印机和HMSO控制器。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
It is well established that urbanisation has a significant effect on the local climate. The climate of an urban area will differ from that of a nearby rural area. Modifications to the relevant properties of the urban environment will amplify or reduce these differences. This paper briefly summarises the literature and reports on the impact of these changes.A series of international studies has indicated that modifications to the urban environment have a significant effect on the energy use of buildings. Detailed studies of these issues with regard to the UK are now under way and these new studies are briefly discussed. There is much current interest in attempting to ameliorate potential summer overheating in cities, focusing on the consequences of heatwaves. However, the wider picture should also be considered. In summer in the UK, the urban heat island (UHI) will tend to result in an increased cooling load and an increased number of excess deaths due to overheating. But in winter, the UHI will tend to result in reduced heating loads and a reduced number of cold-related excess deaths. The net effects of these impacts must be borne in mind in the consideration of large-scale urban modifications. (C) 2008 Queen's Printer and Controller of HMSO. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
