Unsteady Numerical Simulation of Two-Dimensional Airflow over a Square Cross-Section at High Reynolds Numbers as a Reduced Model of Wind Actions on Buildings

Unsteady Numerical Simulation of Two-Dimensional Airflow over a Square Cross-Section at High Reynolds Numbers as a Reduced Model of Wind Actions on Buildings

Airflow over a square cross-section at high Reynolds numbers and different angles of incidence is investigated with the aim of providing deeper insight into wind actions on elongated structures and, in particular, tall buildings. The flow around bluff bodies is characterized by separation at sharp c...
