Urban street canyon flows play a central role in microclimate control, from street canyon to
neighbourhood and city scale, which affect pollutant dispersion, thermal comfort of residents …

The use of particle image velocimetry (PIV) to study the spatial and temporal features of
unsteady fluid flow has increased dramatically in the past five to ten years. One particular …

The flow structure and turbulence in an open cavity shear layer has been investigated
experimentally at a Reynolds number of, with an emphasis on interactions of the unsteady …

Abstract The Vertical City Weather Generator (VCWG) is a computationally efficient urban
microclimate model developed to predict temporal and vertical variation of potential …

A key difficulty in air pollution dispersion modeling and quantifying fugitive emission fluxes of
pollutants from open-pit mines is that the meteorological fields for such complex terrains …

The particular conditions of air circulation inside large open pit mines under intense
insolation, dominated by mechanical and buoyant effects, are crucial when studying the …

An analysis of the dynamics of the flow over a street canyon immersed in an atmospheric
boundary layer is presented, using particle image velocimetry measurements in a wind …

Moisture contamination control has been adopted in many wafer handling and storage
processes. In portable wafer carriers called front opening unified pods (FOUPs), the current …

With continuing urbanization and increasing population size, the understanding of the urban
microclimate becomes more important. The urban microclimate is the specific climatic …

An experimental setup was developed to perform wind tunnel measurements on a unit-ratio,
2D open cavity under perpendicular incident flow. The open cavity is characterized by a …
