Pedestrian-level wind speed enhancement in urban street canyons with void decks
Low wind speeds can inhibit passive ventilation and reduce thermal comfort in tropical cities. We use both experimental and numerical approaches to investigate pedestrian-level wind speed enhancement with void decks (empty spaces at the ground floors) in urban street canyons. Water channel experimen...
