Journal ArticleDOI

D. Xiao,D. Xiao,Claire Heaney,Laetitia Mottet,Laetitia Mottet,Fangxin Fang,William E. Lin,Ionel Michael Navon,Yike Guo,Omar Matar,Alan Robins,Christopher C. Pain +11 more
TL;DR: A fast-running Non-Intrusive Reduced Order Model (NIROM) for predicting the turbulent air flows found within an urban environment and the tantalising possibility of it being used in place of Gaussian plume models, and the potential for greatly improved model fidelity and confidence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proposed large-scale modelling of the transient features of a downburst outflow
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional slot jet with an actuated gate produces a gust with a dominant roll vortex, and the evolution of the horizontal and vertical velocity components is examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
The response of an overhead electrical power transmission line to two types of wind forcing
TL;DR: In this paper, a study of an aeroelastic model of a single transmission line span and support structure was conducted at a length scaling of 1:100, and the experimental model was subjected to boundary layer and downdraft outflow wind forcing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-scale quasi-steady modelling of a downburst outflow using a slot jet
William E. Lin,Eric Savory +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors synthesize the literature on the meteorology, experimental simulation, and wind engineering ramifications of intense downburst outflows and present a novel design of a large-scale test facility and experimental evidence of its validity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy modeling of photovoltaic thermal systems with corrugated unglazed transpired solar collectors – Part 1: Model development and validation
TL;DR: In this article, a thermal analysis model for building-integrated photovoltaic-thermal (BIPV/T) systems with unglazed transpired solar collectors (UTCs) is presented.
