| Abstract | This study addresses the issues pertinent to both the topographic effects on wind flow fields over complex terrain and the accuracy of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The numerical simulations using isotropic eddy viscosity and wall functions are conducted based on the numerical solutions of the incompressible, nonisothermal, steady-state turbulent flows, in which a regional computational model of a hilly island in Hong Kong has been constructed and the computational results are compared with the experimental data of a boundary layer wind tunnel testing and the in-situ measurements from a remote sensing facility (Doppler radar wind profiler system) at Cheung Chau (CCH) weather station in the island. |
