New inflow boundary conditions for modeling twisted wind profiles in CFD simulation for evaluating the pedestrian-level wind field near an isolated building	2018-03-15		.txt	text/plain	7659	395	56	authors: Weerasuriya, A.U.; Hu, Z.Z.; Zhang, X.L.; Tse, K.T.; Li, S.; Chan, P.W. title: New inflow boundary conditions for modeling twisted wind profiles in CFD simulation for evaluating the pedestrian-level wind field near an isolated building The new inflow boundary condition derived based on the horizontal homogeneous assumption, specifies a vertical profile of lateral wind speeds at the inlet boundary to sustain the twist effect in the empty computational domain. The proposed boundary conditions are used to simulate the PLW fields near three isolated buildings with different Height-to-Width ratio using two CFD codes; OpenFOAM, and FLUENT. Although plenty of studies have been conducted to provide inlet boundary conditions in the simulation of the atmospheric boundary layer flow, no systematic investigations, to the best knowledge of the authors, have been carried out to show the sustainability of the twisted wind profiles in the CFD computational domain.	./cache/cord-300083-qm27uw8r.txt	./txt/cord-300083-qm27uw8r.txt
