论文摘要
城市地区是缓解气候变化和适应措施的高风险目标。为了理解，预测和改善城市的能源性能，科学界开发了数值模型，这些模型描述了它们如何通过各种规模的热量和水分交流与大气相互作用。在这篇综述中，我们介绍了最近十年的计算机图形革命的起源，以及统计物理学的最新突破，这些物理学将建立良好的路径融合配方扩展到了非线性耦合模型。我们认为，数学，物理，计算机和工程科学方面的科学进步的这种罕见结合为城市气候建模开辟了有希望的途径，并在复杂的大气条件下以复杂的城市几何形状中的耦合传热模拟进行了说明。我们强调了这些方法超出城市气候建模之外的潜力，即在社会的能源过渡的核心中必要分配问题。
Urban areas are a high-stake target of climate change mitigation and adaptation measures. To understand, predict and improve the energy performance of cities, the scientific community develops numerical models that describe how they interact with the atmosphere through heat and moisture exchanges at all scales. In this review, we present recent advances that are at the origin of last decade's revolution in computer graphics, and recent breakthroughs in statistical physics that extend well established path-integral formulations to non-linear coupled models. We argue that this rare conjunction of scientific advances in mathematics, physics, computer and engineering sciences opens promising avenues for urban climate modeling and illustrate this with coupled heat transfer simulations in complex urban geometries under complex atmospheric conditions. We highlight the potential of these approaches beyond urban climate modeling, for the necessary appropriation of the issues at the heart of the energy transition by societies.
