| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to develop a new module of tree canopy model for CFD prediction of urban environment. Firstly, field observations of turbulent flow fields in and around a group of trees were carried out and spatial variation of turbulent length scale was examined. Then, new evaluation methods of the turbulent length scale using LES data were developed to revise model coefficients of canopy model. Next, LES analyses of the wind flow within roughness elements were performed to investigate the influence of roughness configurations on turbulent characteristics within the canopy layer. Canopy models previously proposed based on k-ε model to reproduce the effect of roughness configurations on flow fields were examined and revised by using the turbulent length scale data provided by the LES. Finally, wind environments in an agricultural area located 20km south from Sendai were predicted to investigate the effects of new windbreak forest by using OpenFOAM with the revised tree canopy model.
