Building porosity for better urban ventilation in high-density cities – A computational parametric study

Shape-edged buildings impose large frictional drag on the flow in the urban boundary layer. In the sub-tropics, especially during hot and humid summers, compact building blocks create stagnant air that worsens outdoor urban thermal comfort. The current study adapts the κ–ω SST turbulence model to si...
