Recently, CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) is being more and more used in the investigation of the flow and thermal around high-rise buildings.
To validate the model, the simulation results were compared with wind tunnel data.
CFD model configurations In order to investigat the thermal effect on flow field behind the building, the geometry and computational domains as shown in Fig. 1, were created using ICEM-CFD.
Range of Ri=0.1-1.5 was used for this simulation [9, 10].
Conclusion CFD simulations and numerical study of single high-rise building with leeward wall heating and compared to isothermal case showed that the recirculation length was reduced approximately 10.6% in thermal case compared to isothermal case.

In the CFD(computational fluid dynamics) study of hydrocyclones, the grid is a important factor to predicting the flow field.
The CFD study of the axial, radial and tangential velocity profiles have been carried out.
Nowakowski has Simulated hydrocyclones by CFD to make clear whether it is a realizable option or still a research challenge [2].
Two commercial CFD software of Fluent and CFX were used to simulate the hydrocyclone and get the Prediction of strongly swirling flow within an axial hydrocyclone [4].
The CFD simulation and experimental validation studies on hydrocyclone were carried out at the same time and got the conclusion that predictions using RSM model were found better in agreement with experimental results with a marginal error between 4% and 8% [5].
