Numerical simulations of wind measurements at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol

Krüs, H.W. / Haanstra, J.O. / van der Ham, R. / Schreur, B.Wichers

AbstractIn this paper two typical results of numerical simulations of wind measurements at an airport are discussed. The first case deals with the long reach of some isolated individual ‘roughness elements’. The positioning of the farms and haystacks result in a weak vortex which travels over a very long distance. The second case is about the influence of an industrial complex just outside the airport premises. In this case the actual wake behind the buildings is the dominant flow feature. The numerical simulations are able to explain the measured disturbances.
