Abstract
The contribution of the anthropogenic component into the total urban heat balance has been estimated (by the example of the city of Tomsk). The analyzed period consists of four years, from 2002 to 2007. The anthropogenic heat in the city has been subdivided into three components: burnt fuel heat (from enter-prises, vehicles, and utility gas), electric energy input, and space heating. The maximum contribution into air heating is burnt fuel, and the minimum is electric energy. The total anthropogenic heat from all of the heat sources is 18 W/m2 in the winter and 4 W/m2 in the summer. The anthropogenic heat influx in winter months (from November to February) is from 25 to 80% of the solar radiation inflow.
