In addition, a city-scale inventory of electricity and natural gas energy consumption of buildings was conducted.
Anthropogenic heat fluxes from traffic and building energy uses were obtained from the residual of the surface energy balance (SEB) equation (Oke, 1988).
UWG
The evaluation of the UWG consists of introducing rural air temperatures as inputs in the model and comparing the calculated and observed urban air temperatures.
It looks like rural station is also one tower.
[x] The main urban experimental site in BUBBLE is BaselSperrstrasse.

[x] Why is the VCWGv2.0.0 performance so good?
[x] It uses the monthly Statistical comparison: Monthly-average diurnal cycle of urban canyon air temperature.
Visualized report
[x] which epw: Ue1-hourly, Re1-hourly, other epw-hourly
make the bypass-ed close to the VCWG / Bypass-refinement
[x] Building characteristics need indirect validation, such as the upgoing long wave radiation, latent,and sensible heat fluxes.
[x] Building characteristics might not need specific validation.
[x] get the bypassed result
[x] why did they chose Mid-RiseApartment (5A Chicago or 4C Seatle)?
[x] UWG, VCWG might not pay special treatment on the building performance validation (as long as the predicted canyon temperature matched, they will think the building model is OK.)
[x] Building characteristics are determined by the actual setting: 3 to 4 storey, post-80 built, Basel is in the 4C climate zone.
[x] find other related initialization for .uwg
[x] (based on the above information), re-assure with the paper reading
[x] Is there special treatment we need to do on the above idf models?

autosize,0, # autosize HVAC (1 for yes; 0 for no)
sensOcc,100, # Sensible heat per occupant [W]
LatFOcc,0.3, # Latent heat fraction from occupant (normally 0.3)
RadFOcc,0.2, # Radiant heat fraction from occupant (normally 0.2)
RadFEquip,0.5, # Radiant heat fraction from equipment (normally 0.5)
RadFLight,0.7, # Radiant heat fraction from light (normally 0.7)
hvac,0, # HVAC TYPE; 0 = Fully Conditioned (21C-24C); 1 = Mixed Mode Natural Ventilation (19C-29C + windows open >22C); 2 = Unconditioned (windows open >22C)

write-up
required updates of the idf model with the focus of thermal properties and performance of the building for the BUBBLE project
