Natural ventilation is gaining popularity in response to an increasing demand for a sustainable and healthy built environment, but the design of a naturally ventilated building can be challenging due to the inherent variability in the…
In order to provide comfort in a low energy consumption building, it is preferable to use natural ventilation rather than HVAC systems. To achieve this, engineers need tools that predict the heat and mass transfers between the building's…
The urban canopy affects wind in complex ways, making it challenging to predict wind-driven natural ventilation and cooling in buildings. Using large eddy simulations of coupled outdoor and indoor airflow, we study how the surrounding urban…
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is frequently used to support the design of naturally ventilated buildings; however, the model accuracy should be thoroughly assessed, ideally through validation with full-scale measurements. The present…
The airflow in a subject-specific breathing human lung is simulated with a multiscale computational fluid dynamics (CFD) lung model. The three-dimensional (3D) airway geometry beginning from the mouth to about 7 generations of airways is…
In past years, several studies have proposed new methods and applications for urban wind simulations. In this article, we present a fast and automatic methodology for reconstructing airflows within urban environments using LiDAR and…
A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model that solves the steady-state Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations for buoyant compressible pollution dispersion under different meteorological conditions is developed. A 6.4 km by 6.4…

A bioclimatic approach to designing comfortable buildings in hot and humid tropical regions requires, firstly, some preliminary, important work on the building envelope to limit the energy contributions, and secondly, an airflow…
To validate the second-by-second dynamics of turbines in field experiments, it is necessary to accurately reconstruct the winds going into the turbine. Current time-resolved inflow reconstruction techniques estimate wind behavior in…
Airflow through the nasal cavity exhibits a wide variety of fluid dynamicsbehaviour due to the intricacy of the nasal geometry. The flow is naturallyunsteady and perhaps turbulent, despite CFD in the literature that assumesa steady laminar…
A moderate-sized (8 MW) fire was modeled in a warehouse located in an urban area with diverse architecture, under wind conditions. The study investigates the impact of neighboring architecture on the wind field and the resulting effect on…
The study presents wall-modeled large-eddy simulations (LES) characterizing the flow features of a neutral atmospheric boundary layer over two urban-like roughness geometries: an array of three-dimensional square prisms and the…
Energy-efficient ventilation control plays a vital role in reducing building energy consumption while ensuring occupant health and comfort. While Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations provide detailed and physically accurate…
Large-eddy simulation developments and validations are presented for an improved simulation of turbulent internal flows. Numerical methods are proposed according to two competing criteria: numerical qualities (precision and spectral…
We investigate statistics of large-scale structures from large-eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent channel flow at friction Reynolds numbers $Re_\tau = 2 {\rm k}$ and $200 {\rm k}$. To properly capture the behaviour of large-scale…
Large-eddy simulations (LES) are widely-used for computing high Reynolds number turbulent flows. Spatial filtering theory for LES is not without its shortcomings, including how to define filtering for wall-bounded flows, commutation errors…
Real-time estimations of temperature distributions and geometric configurations are important to energy efficient buildings and the development of smarter cities. In this paper we formulate a gradient-based estimation algorithm capable of…
Urban warming is evident in numerous cities. On especially hot days, building surfaces warm up, leading to buoyancy-driven flows adjacent to these surfaces. The dynamics of the flow structures are largely influenced by the interplay between…
We conducted high-resolution large-eddy simulations over a real urban district in Barcelona to examine the impact of wind direction on near-ground flow. The computational mesh resolves over 500 million degrees of freedom, with a spatial…
