Abstract：Urban river has played an crucial influence on the thermal environment of residential area. Refer the case of Shenzhen, this research explored the river and building layout on the outdoor thermal environment of riverside residential building. CFD technology has been utilized to simulate the residential outdoor environment under different architectural layout like temperature, humidity and wind speed and etc.. The standard effective temperature SET* is settled as an evaluation basis to investigate the effect of the relationship between architecture layout and thermal environment. The optimization method of residential building layout has been developed to build ecologicaly friendly, comfortable riverside settlements. Suggestions have been made such as reducing the vertical projection area of the building facing the prevailing winds, and creating ventilation cooling passageway and building the open space in settlements.
