wind turbines for tall buildings
Tall buildings can be an advantage for wind turbine power generation as the wind speed increases dramatically with height above the ground. The wind speed can be further enhanced by funneling the wind between tall structures. This thesis explores and documents this effect with different shape tower designs with wind tunnel and CFD modeling.
