Abstract
Abstract A method of simulating the urban adiabatic boundary layer is described which meets the conflicting requirements of model scale and wind tunnel size by representing only the lower third of the atmospheric boundary layer. Experimental measurements in a 1 250 scale simulated flow are presented and agree well with full scale data. It is concluded that wind loading and wind environment studies of buildings and building complexes can be made using this method at scales large enough to reproduce detail in small and, therefore, economic wind tunnels.
