A Verification and Validation Study of CFD Simulation of Wind-Induced Ventilation on Building with Single-Sided Opening
Wind-induced ventilation is widely acknowledged as one of the best approaches for inducing natural ventilation. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique is gaining popularity among researchers as an alternative for experimental methods to investigate the behavior of wind-driven ventilation in building. In this present paper, Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equation (RANS) k-ε model approach is considered to simulate the airflow on a simplified cubic building with an opening on a single façade. Preliminary simulation using models from previous experiment indicates the reliability of OpenFOAM, the open source software that will be used in this study. The results obtained in this study will better define options for our future study which aims to explore how different buildings arrays modify the airflow inside and around a naturally ventilated building.
