Sophie Schetke 4

5 Built dimension: Infill development (Project Rheinviertel) Status Quo Aims: - Preserve and enhance ventilation - Reduce temperature - Reduce diffuse reflexion Source: Schetke & Kötter 2013/2014 Department of Urban Planning and Real Estate Management, Dr.-Ing. Sophie Schetke 5

6 Built dimension: Infill development (Project Rheinviertel) Scenario moderate densification Option 1: Different building heights induce turbulences to promote ventilation Source: Schetke & Kötter 2013/2014 Department of Urban Planning and Real Estate Management, Dr.-Ing. Sophie Schetke 6

7 Built dimension: Infill development (Project Rheinviertel) Scenario moderate densification Option 2: Dark east facades induce convection and suction effect Source: Schetke & Kötter 2013/2014 Department of Urban Planning and Real Estate Management, Dr.-Ing. Sophie Schetke 7

8 Built dimension: Infill development (Project Rheinviertel) Scenario moderate densification facade greening / high trees reduce reflexion reduction of diffuse light enhance evaporation Source: Schetke & Kötter 2013/2014 Department of Urban Planning and Real Estate Management, Dr.-Ing. Sophie Schetke 8

9 Built dimension: Infill development (Project Rheinviertel) Status quo Moderate densification Source: Bsc thesis Simon Bertram (Schetke/Kötter 2015) Envi-met modelling (potential temperature) for scenarios of infill densification Department of Urban Planning and Real Estate Management, Dr.-Ing. Sophie Schetke 9

10 Upgrade of existing structures? Department of Urban Planning and Real Estate Management, Dr.-Ing. Sophie Schetke 10

11 Natural dimension: Qualification of open spaces (Nature into grey zones) (funded by the German Federal Agency for Nature Conservation, the Foundation Environment and Development of NRW and the 'Lebendige Stadt' Foundation) Bonn Science Shop lead and coordination Nationwide campaign, 3 pilot cities with 26 participating companies (Duisburg, Wiesloch, Erfurt) Department of Urban Planning and Real Estate Management, Dr.-Ing.
