Abstract Modeling homogeneous Atmospheric Boundary Layers (ABLs) in Computational Wind Engineering (CWE) requires that all of the conservation equations are in equilibrium. A standard approach is to apply appropriate boundary conditions in order to maintain the inlet prescribed ABL profiles. Recently, the investigation has turned to the implementation of suitable source terms in the momentum equation. In the present work, the ABL is numerically simulated for neutral, stable and unstable atmosphere using nudging, a type of Data Assimilation. Simulations were performed with an in-house code that solves the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations and the standard k-ε turbulence model in steady state. The prescribed inlet flow profiles correspond to the reference data, which is used to define the nudging source terms that are added to the equations. The source terms play a role resembling a body-force and a source-sink mechanism in the momentum and TKE equations, respectively. This novel approach is shown to be reliable in ensuring streamwise homogeneity, under both neutral and non-neutral conditions, for the equilibrium ABL.
