In this paper, a numerical assessment of the potential for urban wind energy is presented. The results propose an efficient approach for installing wind turbines on the high-rise buildings with wind power potential in a dense urban region.
Highlights:
•A large-scale wind power estimation is implemented in realistic high-rise urban areas. •Impacts of existing high-rise building features on wind power are analyzed. •Accuracy of CFD simulations are validated by on-site measurements in two seasons. •Effective strategy of turbine installation is considered for high-rise buildings.

In our class, we have shown few cases of wind power estimation using numerical assessments to evaluate wind power potential and installation arrangements in Hong Kong. Still, there are more suggested locations for turbine installation that can be investigated deeply. Please share what you observe through the results.
