LES on wind pressure acting on high-rise building under strong wind events of Typhoon

. This study predicts wind pressure on high-rise buildings under typhoons by LES using CUBE and discuss the effects of turbulence fields obtained from broad region simulation and fine vortex structure around complicated facade on wind pressure. First, the computation of broad region including many high-rise building is carried out. The computation reveals that structures with streamtwise vorticity appears from the upper corner of high-rise building and remains even in 1km leeward region. Then, the computation resolving the complicated façade of two buildings is carried out and turbulent structure around the complicated façade is examined. The result shows that it is possible to show local wind pressure induced by fine structure of vortex by the computation with high spatial resolution resolving the shape of unevenness on building façade.
