Overview

CFD simulations assess how building height and shape influence wind speed at pedestrian levels, suggesting improved urban designs for safety and comfort.

Key Points

  • Wind speed significantly impacts pedestrian safety and outdoor activities in urban settings with high-rise buildings.
  • CFD simulations indicated various building configurations may amplify wind speed at pedestrian levels and affect environmental quality.
  • Assessment utilized ANSYS Fluent software to analyze wind behavior, leading to optimized building shapes and heights for urban comfort.
  • Improving building designs could mitigate wind effects, enhancing overall environmental quality for city dwellers.
