The geometry was modified for simulation purposes which may or may not have introduced inaccuracies. Fundamentally the modification was extending the topology and modification to topology. Additionally some surfaces had gaps, these were closed by moving some faces.

Wind comfort study for London area of walkie talkie building

This project takes a standard grasshopper model used to demonstrate outdoor thermal comfort, to demonstrate how to import SimScale Results back into the grasshopper engine for visualization and calculation purposes such as calculating UTCI.

This project aims at evaluating how much air from the exhaust of a building AHU reaches the balconies and windows of its facade, as well as the other surrounding buildings.  Multiple wind direction scenarios are evaluated.
The CAD model includes a detailed, central building with balconies and windows, from where the exhaust air is released. The surrounding building are modeled as simple blocks.
This project uses incompressible analyses with passive scalars. The use of passive scalar is to model the concentration of air exhaust at any location.

This project aims at investigating the impact of trees as porous media in mitigating the wind effects affecting pedestrian wind  comfort.
A comparison between two scenarios is undertaken, one using an urban model with no trees and one using trees. The areas of significant improvement in wind comfort and reduction in wind velocity are highlighted.

To simulate the airspeed between buildings

This project aims to demonstrate the use of porous media, using known pressure loss curves to model an object (balcony railings in this case) as porous media, showing a comparison between modelled pressure loss in the Lattice Boltzmann Method, and demonstrating its application in Pedestrian Wind Comfort Analysis.

Used to demonstrate : 
- STL with layers workflow
- Detailed geometry handling (stadium)
- Additional results export:  3D volume data and surface pressures
- Simplified trees modeling (forest)
- Difference between 4 and 8 wind directions
