Dispersion Patterns In A Heterogeneous Urban Area

A LES numerical modeling of flow in cities is presented. In three different scenarios, FEFLO-URBAN was used to analyze flow and dispersion patterns. First, a realistic urban setting in Tysons Corner, Northern Virginia, where the building geometry was obtained through blueprints; second, the MUST experiment conducted in the U.S. Army Dugway Proving Ground Horizontal Grid test site in Utah; and finally, a scenario in New York City as part of a collaborative effort supporting the design for the MSG05 Tracer experiment in the Madison Square Garden area.
