Numerical Simulation of Surface Wind Pressures on Low-Rise Buildings

Abstract:

This paper mainly studies the distribution characteristics of surface wind pressure on low-rise buildings. Based on the theory of fluid dynamics, this study uses CFD software Fluent 6.3.26 to conduct numerical simulation of the models in wind tunnel tests by Yong Chul Kim involving four working conditions of different spacing or area density in regular arrangement. Compared with data of wind tunnel tests, the results show that different spacing or area density has significant influence on surface wind pressure of low-rise buildings and surrounding buildings have shielding effect over target buildings.
