Journal ArticleDOI

Appropriate boundary conditions for computational wind engineering models using the k-ϵ turbulence model

TL;DR: In this paper, velocity and turbulence profiles associated with the k-ϵ turbulence model are proposed which produce homogeneous conditions, and the cospectrum for the Reynolds stress exhibits a characteristics frequency n o ≈ u ∗ / z which is consistent with the suggested profile equations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wind pressures on a 6m cube

TL;DR: In this paper, a 6-m cube has been constructed at Silsoe Research Institute in an open country exposed position and detailed measurements have been made of surface pressure on the cube and of the wind velocities in the region around the cube.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wind-tunnel modelling of the Silsoe Cube

TL;DR: In this paper, a 1:40 scale wind-tunnel modelling of the Silsoe 6m Cube at the University of Auckland is reported, where the authors compare the high-frequency end of each spectrum with the lowfrequency end.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bluff bodies in deep turbulent boundary layers: Reynolds-number issues

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present new wind-tunnel data obtained in the ‘classical’ case of thick fully turbulent boundary-layer flow over a surface-mounted cube, covering an increase in the Reynolds number range of well over an order of magnitude.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pressures on a cubic building—Part 1: Full-scale results

TL;DR: In this paper, the vertical and horizontal centrelines of the Silsoe 6m cube are presented and the full-scale data has been processed in 12-min nonoverlapping record blocks of cube surface tap pressure together with the reference upstream approach flow measured at cube height.
