Abstract

This project is all about the study of wind pressure distribution around low-rise building by using CFD method. The objectives of this project are to determine the effects of low-rise building configuration on the wind pressure and to predict the wind pressure distribution around low-rise building by using CFD. There are some variables that can effects the wind pressure distribution around low-rise building such as wind speed, wind direction, type of the roof, shape of the building and the shield around the building. The simulations were running in different model design based on the variables to find the pattern of wind pressure distribution. Simulations were running by using Ansys CFX-5.7. The results showed that there are different pattern of wind pressure distribution and wind speed flow pattern for each models. The windward area will show the high pressure value than the leeward area which the leeward area was the negative pressure is because of it was the suction are.
