A model experiment has been carried out in order to examine the effect of surface irregularity of an urban structure on the anomalous absorption of incident solar radiation. Several models of an urban structure resembling buildings and canyons were constructed by using concrete blocks in cubic form.

In this work we simulate, by a Monte Carlo method, the balance of longwave radiation within different urban structures. The experiment consists in simulating the foton traces, and then to evaluate the percentage of lost longwave radiation. Also we calculate the decrease in temperature for each grid
