Abstract

The inner part of a neutral atmospheric boundary layer has been simulated in a wind tunnel, using air injection through the wind tunnel floor to thicken the boundary layer. The flow over both a rural area and an urban area has been simulated by adapting the roughness of the wind tunnel floor. Due to the thickening of the boundary layer the scaling factor of atmospheric boundary layer simulation with air injection is considerably smaller than that without air injection. This reduction of the scaling factor is very important for the simulation of atmospheric dispersion problems in a wind tunnel.
