In this study, a detailed model of an urban landscape has been re-constructed inthe wind
tunnel and the flow structure inside and above the urban canopy has beeninvestigated …

This is the first paper of a long-term measurement campaign to explore wind, temperature,
radiation and energy fields within an urban canyon. A canyon and a rooftop mast were …

The paper presents an overview of the influence of street architecture on the wind and
turbulence patterns in street canyons and discusses the effects on local air quality. The …

Wind and temperature measurements from within and above a deep urban canyon
(height/width= 2.1) were used to examine the thermal structure of air within the canyon …

Reduced-scale experiments and full-scale field measurements show contradictory buoyancy
effects from heated windward walls. Reduced-scale experiments exhibit significant thermal …

A wind tunnel study has been undertaken to assess theinfluence of solar-induced wall
heating on the airflowpattern within a street canyon under low-speed windconditions. This …

Urban areas are major sources of air pollution. Pollutant emissions affecting air quality in
cities are considered to have adverse consequences for human health. Public and …

The modelling of pollutant dispersion at the street scale in an urban environment requires
the knowledge of turbulence generated by the traffic motion in streets. In this paper, a …

The present work examines the flow field in a simple street canyon that has been modeled at
full-scale and at 1: 200 scale in a wind tunnel. It relies on the detailed analysis of statistics of …

A full scale experiment has been performed in a streetcanyon, the Rue de Strasbourg in
Nantes (France). Thiscampaign, the Nantes' 99 experiment, provided a detaileddata base …
