Large-eddy simulation of the effects of a tower structure on wind velocity and drag coefficient

Abstract A large-eddy simulation was implemented for the flow around a cylindrical observation tower to investigate the effects of the tower structure on wind speed and drag coefficient. The mean wind velocity accelerates above the tower because flow separation occurs at the leading edge of the top...
