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. - Copy

This project involves meshing externally a platform of some modern design buildings, and then visualizing the behavior of the air that flows through it by simulating it, which is  a common practice nowadays, performed in urban developing, architectural design, environmental planning applications and many more. For the meshing of the maquette configuration of buildings that form this urban landscape, the Hex-dominant parametric (only CFD) and 16 processors were used. A steady state incompressible flow simulation, using the k-omega Spalart Allmaras turbulence model,  is executed, in order to visualize the air flow  as well as the critical areas of the re-circulation. Results from the simulation, as well as flow visualization techniques are also provided from the SimScale and Paraview platforms. - Copy

This project aims to obtain the airflow inside two design alternatives for an HVAC system of a theater room. Convective heat transfer simulation is used to obtain the flow pattern inside the room. Thermal comfort parameters such as PMV (Predicted Mean Vote) and PPD (Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied) are obtained along with the mean age of fluid. - Copy

For this project, we simulated two different scenarios, one using a model without the integration of trees around the park and near the building, and the second including the effect of these trees. The purpose of this was to find out if planting trees around urban high-rise buildings can be an effective strategy to mitigate the undesirable effects of airflow, leading to wind discomfort at the pedestrian level. - Copy
