  1. KINEMATICAL STUDY OF THE FLOWAROUND SURFACE-MOUNTED OBSTACLES a) OBSTACLE IN A STEADY, UNIFORM WIND b) (a) Flow round a section of a tall rectangular building in a steady, uniform wind. (b) Vortices on the roof of a rectangular building.

  3. KINEMATICAL STUDY OF THE FLOWAROUND SURFACE-MOUNTED OBSTACLES OBSTACLE IN A STEADY, UNIFORM WIND • Region B’BCDD’- Separated flow forming the wake • Inside the wake the wind flow is very turbulent (turbulence intensity up to 40%) • BB’ and DD’- shear layers (the greatest level of fluctuating component) • Corner vorticies on the roof are responsible for the high peak suction near the edges of buildings (important for ventilation system) Flow structure in the wake behind the plate

  5. KINEMATICAL STUDY OF THE FLOWAROUND SURFACE-MOUNTED OBSTACLES OBSTACLE IN A STEADY, UNIFORM WIND Drag coefficient for an obstacle of rectangular cross-section

  6. KINEMATICAL STUDY OF THE FLOWAROUND SURFACE-MOUNTED OBSTACLES OBSTACLE IN A STEADY, UNIFORM WIND Drag coefficients for objects with sharp and rounded corners

  8. KINEMATICAL STUDY OF THE FLOWAROUND SURFACE-MOUNTED OBSTACLES OBJECT IN TURBULENT INCIDENT FLOW Two main effects of the inlet turbulence: • The separated flow can re-attach at D’. The second separation occurs at C, so the boundaries of the wake are B’BCC’ • Shear layers BB’ and CC’ are thickened.

  10. KINEMATICAL STUDY OF THE FLOWAROUND SURFACE-MOUNTED OBSTACLES EFFECT OF SHEAR IN INCIDENT WIND The effects of shear in the inclined wind on the flow round a building. (a) Stream lines. (b) Vortex lines. Upstream of an obstacle in a shear flow on the ground (boundary layer) a vortex is found which creates a down-wash on the front face of the obstacle. Explanation: Vortex lines swept in by the inclined flow are “piled” up. Swirling flow exists downwind on either side of the building.
