Abstract

This chapter will introduce the numerical simulation of two green features including windcathcer and wing walls. The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) numerical technique used including geometry, numerical grids, boundary conditions and turbulence models will be discussed. The ventilation performance of these green features in buildings will be discussed. Other CFD applications in building services engineering such as prediction of flow-generated noise using CFD will also be briefly introduced.
