Specifics of the wind regime in the design of residential development for ventilation and wind protection

Wind is one of the most important climatic factors which imposes certain restrictions when designing residential buildings. The purpose of the study is to determine the characteristics of the impact of wind flow on groupings of residential buildings of various configurations proposed in Soviet times for the purpose of ventilation and wind protection. Another example studied was that of a modern urban development - or a “multimillion anthill”, including high-rise buildings of non-standard configuration, creating a “well” zone. The study shows the wind regime of residential building layouts for the purpose of wind protection and ventilation. The transition from a real object to a calculated model was performed. The calculation was carried out using the Ansys CFX software package. Based on the work done, recommendations for buildings are proposed.
