【 摘 要 】

The current physical development in urban area turns the cityscape into vertical growth with building that separated by narrow streets. Consequently, canyon formed in urban residential impact on thermal quality. Surfaces in canyon receive shortwave radiation and increase the Urban Heat Island (UHI) intensity. This paper discusses the quality of thermal quality in various urban canyons form which are influenced by several factors such as density, materials, topography, building arrangement and vegetations. The aims to categorize a number of residential canyon causes and its qualities of thermal environment. The initial result shows that building materials, canyon geometry and orientation gives significant role to their thermal environment.
