Environmental consequences within the built environment are becoming a crucial issue in engineering project developments
Increasingly common to use CFD in the design process to assess and optimise environmental flow impacts relating to:-• pedestrian comfort and safety• exhaust emissions• airborne dispersion• snow deposition

The Melbourne CBD City Square precinct incorporates an underground car park
Due to architectural constraints the exhaust stack is through a street level cafe
Concerns were raised of the discharge upon café patrons and upon adjacent buildings (hotel with exposed balconies)
CFD study conducted to assess effect of stack discharge for different wind condition
Provide optimised stack solution

Pedestrian comfort and safety aspects are a prominent issue for urban city planning
In Wellington specific rules apply as proviso for permitted building developments (over four storeys high)
Property developers and designers must demonstrate no adverse effects on the local wind conditions around the building vicinity
Establish that CFD can be a useful tool

Issues were raised during Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) concerning likely snow drifting around redeveloped resort
Two configurations were analysed with CFD to establish snow deposition around the buildings and pedestrian concourse areas
A two-phase CFD model was developedThe study demonstrated that CFD could be
utilised as a practical tool for architectural planning purposes

Emissions from the vent stacks need to be monitored (EPA policy) to ensure pollutant concentrations are within statutory levels
During commissioning it was found that the discharge flow within the exhaust stack was non-uniform and as a consequence the flow could not be sampled and measured
CFD study was undertaken to establish flow characteristics and determine a satisfactory solution to overcome the problem

Project case studies have shown the use of CFD for assessing and optimising solutions related to environmental flows
Issues relating to exhaust emissions, snow deposition, airborne dispersion, pedestrian comfort and safety can be addressed with CFD and can also provide cost benefits
Anticipated that CFD will be a useful tool and essential aid for urban developers, architectural designers and environmental planners for the built environment design
Conclusions Conclusions
