ENVI-met is a microscale three-dimensional software model for simulating complex urban environments based on the fundamental laws of fluid mechanics (wind field), thermodynamics (temperature calculations) and general atmospheric physics (for example, turbulence prediction).[1]
In science, ENVI-met is used in an interdisciplinary way to investigate the influences of progressive urbanisation - for example due to land sealing, surface materials used and changed urban topographies - on the urban microclimate and human health, and to enable climate-appropriate planning.[2][3]
Company formation
The software model has been continuously developed since 1994 by the German geographer and climatologist Michael Bruse. In 2014, Michael Bruse and Daniela Bruse founded ENVI-met GmbH in Essen.[4]
