Abstract
The present paper reports a thorough comparison of the turbulent flow characteristics exhibited by a cubic surface-mounted obstacle and a simple geometric variant (gable roof of 30° roof pitch). The measurements supporting this study were obtained by the use of a 2D-DPIV system. Significant differences in the large-scale vortical structures and turbulent kinetic energy fields implied drastic consequences with respect to the advective and turbulent dispersive characteristics of the flow at roof and ground levels.
