Fluid Systems Policy

Policy Framework

  1. Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) Concept Plan / Long-term Plan: Controls urban morphology to influence wind flow, air quality, and heat distribution at the city scale.
  2. Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) Urban Design Guidelines: Building forms and spacing influence wind corridors → Controlling air flow between plots to prevent air stagnation zones.
  3. Ministry of National Development (MND): Large-scale greenery increases evaporative cooling → Reducing ambient temperatures (local temperatures in green areas can drop by approx. 1-2°C).
  4. Housing & Development Board (HDB) Tengah Planning: Car-free town centers remove vehicles → Reducing local air pollutants (NOx, Particulate Matter) and heat emissions → Improving ground-level air quality.
  5. Housing & Development Board (HDB) Planning: Continuous green belts (100m × 5km) act as air channels + cooling corridors, enhancing wind penetration and heat dissipation.
  6. Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) and Inter-agency Urban Wind Flow Analysis (UWFA): Use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations → Ensuring minimum ventilation performance for development projects.
  7. Housing & Development Board (HDB) Design: Buildings are aligned with prevailing wind directions → Increasing natural ventilation rates within and between buildings.
  8. Housing & Development Board (HDB) Smart/Sustainable Systems: Centralised Cooling Systems (CCS) reduce the need for individual air conditioning → Lowering waste heat discharge into the urban atmosphere.
  9. National Environment Agency (NEA) Air Quality Regulation: Standards for Particulate Matter (PM2.5 and PM10) treat air as a quantifiable resource → Controlling pollutants within micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m³) thresholds.

  • b) Aerial remote sensing to acquire GIS features

② A — Analogy: Establish a spatiotemporal correlation knowledge base and information database for “Future Living,” integrated with EAVC (Energy Anchored Value Consensus)

③ D — Derivative: Framework for the “Future Living” solution

④ Integration based on D:

  • a) Energy systems specialists
  • b) Architectural design specialists
  • c) Materials specialists
  • d) Electronics and information specialists
