Building sector is one of the highest energy consumers in any city and one of the main factors that cause Urban Heat Island (UHI) Phenomenon. This phenomenon can impact building energy consumption, health issues, and outdoor thermal comfort. In particular, buildings interact with their surrounding environment and can be significantly affected by UHI effects. In this research work, detailed yet simplified simulation environment tool is developed for urban district capable of modeling the thermal interaction effects between urban air and buildings and ultimately determine the UHI effects. The developed simulation environment is applied to evaluate various UHI mitigation options to improve energy efficiency of urban built environment.The impacts on the magnitudes of UHI effects of several design parameters and operation strategies specific to urban buildings are investigated as part of this research. Specifically, the design factors considered in the study include but not limited to canyon aspect ratio, reflectivity of building's surfaces, HVAC performance, air infiltration rate, indoor setpoint temperature, urban pavement reflectivity, building density, and building type. The operation strategies considered in the study include precooling building thermal mass and equipment load shifting. Furthermore, the impacts of building integrated photovoltaic systems on UHI effects as well as on urban buildings' energy performance are evaluated for two US urban districts with different climatic conditions.
