Comparative Study between Field Measurement and Wind Tunnel Test of Wind Pressure on Wuhan International Stock Building

Article Preview

Abstract:

Field measurement and wind tunnel test of wind pressure on the surfaces of Wuhan International Stock Building were carried out in this paper, and the mean wind pressure coefficients, RMS wind pressure coefficients, wind pressure spectra as well as coherence functions were discussed. Meanwhile wind pressure distributions were analyzed. The results demonstrated that the distribution of the surface mean wind pressure coefficients obtained by wind tunnel test approximately agreed with that by field measurement, especially the mean wind pressure coefficients on the windward obtained by the wind tunnel test fitted those obtained by the field measurement well, while the RMS wind pressure coefficients of the wind tunnel results are smaller than those of field measurement, and the RMS wind pressure coefficients of some measure points of field measurement fluctuated greatly.
