Abstract
In recent years, wind energy has become a potential source of low carbon energy. The shape of a building is a significant factor in aerodynamics, providing an opportunity for wind power control and wind energy proliferation. This research project aims to study the design of high-rise buildings and investigate how wind affects energy absorption by developing an aerodynamic optimization procedure (AOP) and using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in COMSOL Multiphysics. This study aimed to optimize the building shape for wind energy exploitation. Optimizing the building shape in the early stages of design enables the control of wind-induced loads and responses and reduces the energy demand in high-rise buildings, where resource consumption is higher than that in low-height buildings. This study used a three-dimensional CFD simulation of wind loading on tall buildings to optimize the building shape. This research will provide valuable insights for architects, engineers, and building developers to design and optimize high-rise buildings for wind energy exploitation, reduce the carbon footprint, and improve the energy efficiency of buildings.
