3.2.1. SUEWS_AnthropogenicEmission.txt#
Note
Changed in version v2019a: this file is renamed from SUEWS_AnthropogenicHeat.txt (prior to v2019a) to include more emission related settings.
SUEWS_AnthropogenicEmission.txt provides the parameters needed to model the anthropogenic heat flux using either the method of Loridan et al. [2011] based on air temperature (EmissionsMethod = 1 in RunControl.nml) or the method of Järvi et al. [2011] based on heating and cooling degree days (EmissionsMethod = 2 in RunControl.nml).
For the method of Järvi et al. [2011] (EmissionsMethod = 2 in RunControl.nml), one can further configure the scheme for calculting HDD/ CDD via BaseTMethod in RunControl.nml:
BaseTMethod= 1 (“V-shape” approach): a singleBaseT_HCis used by omitting the comfort range where neither heating nor cooling is activated.BaseTMethod= 2 (“U-shape” approach):TCritic_Heating_WD(TCritic_Heating_WE) andTCritic_Cooling_WD(TCritic_Cooling_WE) are used for HDD and CDD calculations in weekdays (weekends), respectively, which allows a comfort range betweenTCritic_Heating_WD(TCritic_Heating_WE) andTCritic_Cooling_WD(TCritic_Cooling_WE).
The sub-daily variation in anthropogenic heat flux is modelled according to the daily cycles specified in SUEWS_Profiles.txt.
Alternatively, if available, the anthropogenic heat flux can be provided in the met forcing file (and set EmissionsMethod = 0 in RunControl.nml) by filling the qf column with valid values.
