Abstract:
The building wind environment in coastal areas is highly complex and variable, particularly during winter when strong winds prevail. Understanding the influence of winter winds on human comfort and addressing health issues caused by wind noise in human settlements are very valuable research topics. This study focuses on developing strategies to optimize the wind environment in dormitory buildings located in the southern coastal area, where prolonged periods of strong winds have a significant impact. Specifically, we investigated the current wind in the teacher-student dormitory at Jinjiang Campus of Fuzhou University through questionnaire surveys and field measurements. Additionally, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations were employed to evaluate different dormitory layouts. The research results indicate that it is preferable to position the dormitory areas downwind of large-scale buildings, adopt a staggered layout instead of a regular determinant layout to mitigate the narrow tube effect, avoid designing large-scale squares in the center of the dormitory areas, and enclose the dormitory groups with low-level corridors. These findings provide valuable guidance for the optimizing of winter windproof designs of university buildings located in the same climatic zone along the southeast coast.
