Scalar mixing from concentrated sources in urban-like roughness
The prediction of scalar mixing in urban areas at the neighborhood/street-scale remains a challenging issue owing to the presence of obstacles that lead to very complex flow features (Britter & Hanna 2003). The flow complexity is such to make it impossible to apply Gaussian models in the near-field, where the scalar plume is tipically confined within the canopy (Belcher 2005). The use of refine...
متن کاملEffect of surface roughness on steel-steel dry friction coefficient
The influence of surface roughness magnitude and direction on dry static friction coefficient between two similar steel samples has been studied through an experiment. A testing apparatus has been designed and fabricated to measure the friction coefficient for a few forms of surface asperity. According to the results of the experiments, dry friction coefficient is affected by both magnitude and...
متن کاملTailoring wind properties by various passive roughness elements in a boundary-layer wind tunnel
Boundary-layer wind tunnel provides a unique platform to reproduce urban, suburban and rural atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) by using roughness devices such as vortex generators, floor roughness, barrier walls, and slots in the extended test-section floor in the contraction cone. Each passive device impacts wind properties in a certain way. In this study, influence of various passive devices o...
متن کاملWind tunnel measurements of pollutant turbulent fluxes in urban intersections
Wind tunnel experiments have been carried out at the EnFlo laboratory to measure mean and turbulent tracer fluxes in geometries of real street canyon intersections. The work was part of the major DAPPLE project, focussing on the area surrounding the intersection between Marylebone Road and Gloucester Place in Central London, UK. Understanding flow and dispersion in urban streets is a very impor...
متن کاملWind Tunnel Measurement of Turbulent and Advective Scalar Fluxes: A Case Study on Intersection Ventilation
The objective of this study is to determine processes of pollution ventilation in the X-shaped street intersection in an idealized symmetric urban area for the changing approach flow direction. A unique experimental setup for simultaneous wind tunnel measurement of the flow velocity and the tracer gas concentration in a high temporal resolution is assembled. Advective horizontal and vertical sc...
