Evaluation of ansys-fluent model against field data in the framework of the VIEPI project

This paper presents a CFD analysis of the wind velocity simulated in a portion of the campus of the University of Rome “La Sapienza” (Italy). One of the final goals of this study is the evaluation of the pressure field on the surfaces of the buildings in order to quantify outdoor-indoor exchanges of air mass within a street canyon adjacent to the building of interest. Numerical results concerning the wind field have been compared with in situ data collected in the framework of the VIEPI (Integrated Evaluation of Indoor Particulate Exposure) project.
