Some latest modifications to COSMO utility modules have been ported to INT2LM:
Several external parameters have been added to describe additional urban parameters:
shortname | Explanation |
---|---|
URB_FR_BLD | Building area fraction with respect to urban tile |
URB_H2W | Street canyon H/W ratio |
URB_H_BLD | Building height |
URB_ALB_TH | Urban material thermal albedo (1 - emissivity) |
URB_ALB_SO | Urban material solar albedo |
URB_HCAP | Volumetric heat capacity of urban material |
URB_HCON | Heat conductivity of urban material |
For every field there is a new namelist switch, whether this field should be read from the external parameter data set:
Group | Name | Meaning | Default | |
---|---|---|---|---|
/CONTRL/ | lurb_fr_bld | NEW | if .TRUE., run with building area fraction | .FALSE. |
lurb_h2w | NEW | if .TRUE., run with street canyon H/W ratio | .FALSE. | |
lurb_h_bld | NEW | if .TRUE., run with building height | .FALSE. | |
lurb_alb_th | NEW | if .TRUE., run with thermal albedo | .FALSE. | |
lurb_alb_so | NEW | if .TRUE., run with solar albedo | .FALSE. | |
lurb_hcap | NEW | if .TRUE., run with heat capacity | .FALSE. | |
lurb_hcon | NEW | if .TRUE., run with heat conductivity | .FALSE. |
If a namelist switch is set to .TRUE. the corresponding field will be read from the external parameter data set and written to the initial file for the COSMO-Model.
The following namelist variables have been added in /CONTRL/
Group | Name | Meaning | Default | |
---|---|---|---|---|
/CONTRL/ | lurb_fr_bld | NEW | if .TRUE., run with building area fraction | .FALSE. |
lurb_h2w | NEW | if .TRUE., run with street canyon H/W ratio | .FALSE. | |
lurb_h_bld | NEW | if .TRUE., run with building height | .FALSE. | |
lurb_alb_th | NEW | if .TRUE., run with thermal albedo | .FALSE. | |
lurb_alb_so | NEW | if .TRUE., run with solar albedo | .FALSE. | |
lurb_hcap | NEW | if .TRUE., run with heat capacity | .FALSE. | |
lurb_hcon | NEW | if .TRUE., run with heat conductivity | .FALSE. |
