Influence of Local Wind Pressure Coefficients Based on Height-Varying Reference Wind Speed on Building Energy Performance in a Dense Urban Environment
EnergyPlus AirflowNetwork (EP-AFN) calculates external node pressure using opening height wind speeds, whereas wind pressure coefficients based on a fixed-reference wind speed (Cpr) are commonly used in building energy simulations. To address this inconsistency, this study used computational fluid dynamics to derive wi...
