Abstract

In this paper, we analyze three classical numerical models of heat transfer, including a 1D steady-state model, a 2D transient model and a complex 3D model considering radiative heat transfer. The scope of application, hypothesis, and accuracy of each model were evaluated. To address the heat transfer challenges encountered by structures within the historical urban context, recommendations have been formulated to enhance thermal insulation capabilities. These recommendations encompass the upgrading of materials, reinforcement of insulation layers, and refinement of window designs. Drawing upon the findings and analyses, this paper advances proposals pertinent to the revitalization of ancient cityscapes. This research endeavors to offer both theoretical insights and pragmatic directives, thereby fostering the enhancement of energy efficiency in venerable urban edifices.
