3D Model of Target Utilised for Numerical Modelling
CFD assessment was completed for wind microclimate and thermal comfort at
ground level within different target zones of the development. The assessment
results supported the design and MEP teams of Diriyah Square to improve
outdoor thermal comfort conditions and wind microclimate. Different active and
passive mitigation measures were tested, including:
• Shading devices
• Wind protection screens
• Mist systems
• Radiant cooling
• Mechanical ventilation
• And different material properties
