WEBINAR: CFD wind simulation for urban planning design

November 29th, 2018

10am or 5pm

Design an urban area can be challenging, especially when it comes to making it sustainable… To do so, local wind conditions around buildings and aerodynamic interactions must be assessed. The CFD (computational fluid dynamic) tool can help considering roughness and building aerodynamics.

The presention of Guillaume Caniot, our urban climatology expert, will inlude the following:

Numerical tools to calculate wind conditions in an urban area.

Urban climatology: inlet profile according to upstream roughness and building aerodynamics.

Presentation of two case projects compared with results from wind-tunnel tests.
