Air flow exchange velocity of urban canyon cavities due to thermal spatial differences

In this paper, the air exchange velocity between the urban canyon cavity and the air layer above roof level is quantified, using a two-dimensional k-ε model, and correlated with the air cavity mean temperature, for two cases: leeward and downward wall heating. The spatial thermal differences are eva...
