Abstract

A numerical microscale model of aerodynamics and the transport of pollution was developed. The model takes into account the nonhomogeneity of elements of the urban boundary layer. The numerical solution of the differential problem is based on the finite volume method. On the basis of experiments, a comparison of three different turbulent closure schemes and parameterizations of the urban vegetation was conducted. Turbulent air dynamics and the transport of pollution were modeled around an array of buildings.
