项目介绍
在欧洲规范 EN 1991-1-4{%32 中引用了 [1]]]、ASCE/SEI 7-16 和 NBC 2015 等规范中规定了风荷载参数,例如风压系数 (Cp )基本形状。 The important point is how to calculate wind load parameters faster and more accurately rather than working on time-consuming as well as sometimes complicated formulas in standards.
One of the important points in the CFD simulation is to find accurate and compatible configurations regarding input data such as turbulence models, wind velocity profile, turbulence intensity, boundary layer condition, order of discretization, and so on, which are not mentioned in Eurocode. In the current example for cylinder shape, we recommend compatible settings regarding the Eurocode standard. As can be seen in EN 1991-1-4, there are complicated formulas to obtain the Cp value related to different Reynolds numbers.
Analytical Solution
The dimension of the cylinder as shown in Figure 1 is designed for Reynolds number (Re= 2*106) based on the Equation 7.15 (EN 1991-1-4), where b is the diameter, ν is the kinematic viscosity of the air (ν=15*10-6 m2/s), v(ze) is the peak wind velocity:
Here are the assumptions and recommended settings (Table 1), which present better agreement with Cp and force coefficient value with Eurocode example :

结果
Finally, the Cp contour for 7.5% turbulence intensity (Figure 2) and the diagram for various turbulence intensities are plotted in Figure 3, in which I=7.5% is shown better agreement in predicting the average wind pressure coefficient. For another criterion (Force coefficient Cf,0 in Table 2) which can be obtained regarding Figure 7.28 in EN 1991-1-4, the value of 15% is closer to Eurocode example.
