WIND RESOURCES IN THE URBAN STRUCTURE – CFD NUMERICAL ANALYSIS. POSSIBILITIES OF USING WIND ENERGY ONTHE EXAMPLE OF THE SŁONECZNE ESTATE IN SZCZECIN

Abstract

The issue of wind in an urbanized structure, considered in the context of benefits, forces to undertake activities across multiple disciplines. The lack of understanding of the aerodynamic phenomena in heterogeneous space may lead to failures in implemented projects. The article presents the general scope of issues related to the urban wind turbine and the numerical CFD simulation of air flows in the Słoneczne housing estate in Szczecin, together with the conclusions drawn from it.
