Abstract
The rapid expansion of cities and increasing population means that land is limited and what land is available is shaped in an erratic manner, while its demand is increasing day by day. Therefore, to cope with this increasing demand and to achieve maximum utilization of resources, tall buildings are being built. However, these buildings are extremely vulnerable to lateral loads, particularly wind loads.To ensure the safety of these buildings, wind tunnel studies are used to examine the effects of wind loads. To combat the issue of shortage of wind tunnel facilities in the world, numerical analysis is used instead. Thus, this project aims to analyse the impact of wind effects on high-rise buildings of different shapes with the help of CFD, by making use of ANSYS. The wind effects have been assessed by obtaining the velocity profile and turbulent profile, pressure contours for different faces of the building, and velocity streamlines for the plan and elevation of the building.
