Dispersion of Air Exhaust and Pedestrian Wind Comfort Analysis around Building Blocks

About this project

This project aims at evaluating how much air from the exhaust of a building AHU reaches the balconies and windows of its facade, as well as the other surrounding buildings. Multiple wind direction scenarios are evaluated. The CAD model includes a detailed, central building with balconies and windows, from where the exhaust air is released. The surrounding building are modeled as simple blocks. This project uses incompressible analyses with passive scalars. The use of passive scalar is to model the concentration of air exhaust at any location.
