Abstract

High-rise buildings, as city's landmark, enhance the country's image and prevent environmental destruction caused by the horizontal spread of cities and the congestion of cities under the limited land condition. But in contrast to this positive effects, high-rise buildings consume the enormous amount of energy due to the vertical environments and facilities. The application of renewable energy can be fundamental measures, to resolve the problems of high-rise buildings energy consumption, green house gas emission and extinction of fossil energy, at the same time. The increase of wind velocity due the rise in the height of buildings were found to be sufficient and many studies on the applications of wind power to high-rise buildings, are being performed around the advanced countries. Under the circumstance like this, this study aims for the application of wind power system to high-rise buildings, and especially derives the consideration elements and the process by using of the characteristics of high-rise buildings, suggests the applications through case studies, and provides the base data for securing the energy saving technology for high-rise buildings.
