Abstract
36 meteorological stations are located on the facade of the Research Centre building´s from 2016. Weather stations measure basic climate parameters and wind velocity and direction using a powerful ultra-sonic anemometers. These are located on the walls of the building oriented to four cardinal points at different heights and positions on the facade. The location selections were made with use of CFD simulation which analysed flow around the building. Thus they give faithful image of wind flow near the facade of five-storey office building. Such detailed measurements make it possible to achieve high accurate calibration of CFD models and measurements in the wind tunnel. This paper describes these meteorological stations in detail. First outputs from measurement in autumn are published and analysed.
Highlights
Wind engineering deals with interaction between wind in the atmospheric boundary layer and human works on the earth surface
Wind caused loads on the buildings can be studied by different methods, such as wind tunnel measurements, experiments on the real buildings, which can be full or part scale and Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations
The wind velocity can be considered as it consisted of mean wind speed and fluctuating component
Summary
Wind engineering deals with interaction between wind in the atmospheric boundary layer and human works on the earth surface. Good knowledge of fluid mechanics is the fundamental background necessary for the detailed understanding of interaction among wind flow and civil engineering structures of buildings
