This article deals with the state-of-the-art of experimental and numerical studies carried out
regarding air pollutant dispersion in urban environments. Since the simulation of the …

This investigation presents computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of carbon
dioxide (CO 2) dispersion from a natural gas-fueled thermal power plant in an urban …

The relation between wind-driven rain (WDR) and its potential negative effects on the
hygrothermal performance and durability of building facades can be better understood by …

In wind resistance research involving super high-rise buildings, most studies have
concentrated on increases in the wind velocity with height, but Ekman layer effects, inducing …

This paper exposes the risk of generalization of wind conditions from a single met-mast
measurement to be representative of the actual flow field in a wind farm situated in complex …

Urban wind energy exploitation is an important topic for smart sustainable cities. The present
investigation is a step in this direction, considering the latest advances in building …

Most studies of wind-driven rain (WDR) reported in the literature focus either on isolated
buildings or on a particular building in geometrically complex environments. There is a need …

The influence of twisted wind flows on the pedestrian-level wind (PLW) field of an urban
area was evaluated by testing a typical urban site (Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong) in a boundary …

The hilly topography of Hong Kong influences oncoming winds and gradually changes their
wind directions along the profiles' height. The vertical variation in wind directions, or the twist …

In this study, the interaction of horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) with neutrally stratified
atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) and its wake characteristics are investigated. Important …
