Shading Studies & Heat Island Mitigation via CFD Simulation

Education & Empowerment

Sustainable Design & EngineeringEngineering comfort and resilience through data-driven design.

At PuzzeGreen, we use advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations to visualize and optimize how air, heat, and sunlight interact across built environments. Our Shading Studies & Heat Island Mitigation services help architects, developers, and planners make informed design decisions that enhance outdoor comfort, reduce energy loads, and build climate-adaptive spaces.

By simulating real-world wind flows, radiation patterns, and temperature gradients, we identify hotspots, stagnation zones, and shading inefficiencies long before construction begins. These insights guide the placement of vegetation, shading devices, reflective surfaces, and building massing — creating cooler, breathable urban and architectural spaces.

Our approach merges science with design sensitivity, ensuring every intervention not only performs efficiently but also enhances human experience and environmental balance.

Key Focus Areas:

  • CFD simulations for wind, heat, and solar radiation analysis

  • Optimization of urban form to reduce heat island effect

  • Strategic placement of shading elements and vegetation

  • Evaluation of surface reflectance and material albedo

  • Integration with energy and daylighting performance models
