While the CFD simulations is performed for a steady state scenario only for a given time, because the time scale for the forced convective heat transfer processes within the canyon is much shorter than that for the surface temperature change process.
(2) For the given time of day, the surface temperatures of walls and road calculated through the urban canyon model are provided to the CFD simulation.
And then the CFD simulation is performed without considering of buoyancy effect to obtain a coarse temperature distribution and wind field in the street canyon
(3) CFD simulation is carried out considering the buoyancy effect on the basis of the results obtained by the 2nd step.

Cfd simulation
Three Simulation Cases of Planning and Design.
1) Case of the Existing Planning and Design
This existing planning and design case (Hereinafter referred to as case-1) consists of three rows multiply four lines prefab houses (12 in total).
The CFD simulations use standard k–ε 3-dimensional turbulent flow model.
These sections’ facet average wind velocities (v) which reflect the natural ventilation below 2.8m height above ground were extracted from the CFD simulation results of 3 cases respectively.
That indicates the improved building is a key to the significant improvement in ventilation environment. 4) In our CFD simulation researches we only take wind pressure into account.

Newly developed mathematical and physical model using CFD simulation is used for simulation of hygrothermal stress in chosen part of the ice arena roof construction, which substantially affects quality, utility properties and life time of timber roof components.
Computer simulation methods The available measured data did not provide sufficient information for the required risk analysis of wood degradation, therefore, to obtain the necessary information, numerical CFD simulations in the Fluent program and our own numerical model were used.
Simulations were carried out on two simplified geometries of the arena, specifically a 3D model of the arena quarter, see Fig. 1c) and a 3D model with a periodically repeating segment of the arena, see Fig. 1d).
The very good accordance of the experiment results with the CFD simulation, in the order of inaccuracy of up to approx. 5%, allowed us, for the final heat-moisture assessment of wooden elements, to use the experiment values and to add the missing surface temperatures on both strips of the girder from the simulations.
Basic equations for determining EMC (equilibrium moisture content) used for simulation are provided, for example, in publication [3].
