UTCI (Simulation) - [source code]

Compute annual probe-specific UTCI from simulation outputs: MRT and wind-speed data trees, plus air temperature and relative humidity. For a weather-only calculator, use "UTCI (Weather)".

Input

Name Nickname Description Type
MRT M The MRT component's Result (preferred), or a DataTree of annual MRT values — {probe}(8760) or {hour}(probes), both accepted. Generic Data
Wind Speed V Wind speed as an AnnualWindField (the VAF component's Wind Speed output — fed by CFD probe vectors or the ML Wind Predictor alike), one spatial list (one value per probe, held for all hours), or a {probe}(hours) / {hour}(probes) tree. An AnnualWindField on a different grid than the MRT sensors is resampled by nearest neighbor when both carry points. Pedestrian-height speeds are lifted to the 10 m UTCI reference. Defaults to calm (0.5 m/s) when unconnected. Generic Data
Air Temperature T Annual hourly ambient air temperature (8760 values, °C). Number
Relative Humidity RH Annual hourly relative humidity (8760 values, %). Number
Transpose Orientation of the UTCI tree output. Hours × Probes (default): one branch per hour, each holding every probe's value. Probes × Hours: one branch per probe, each holding that probe's year. Text
Run R Enable UTCI calculation. Boolean

Output

Name Nickname Description Type
UTCI U UTCI data tree. Default: {hour}(probes). With Transpose off: {probe}(hours). Only built while this output is WIRED: for a few thousand probes the full year is tens of millions of values on the canvas, and constructing them — not the UTCI math — is the wait. Prefer the Result output with Deconstruct UTCI. Number
Comfort Hours H No-thermal-stress hours per probe. Integer
Comfort % % Comfort percentage per probe. Number
Result The complete annual UTCI solve as ONE item — feed to Deconstruct UTCI for statistics, comfort maps and hour selections without materializing the year as a tree. Carries the MRT probes' positions when the MRT input was a Result. Generic Data
