Understanding Ventilation in Graduation School: Wind Tunnel a Projectual Aid Tool

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Research & Method in Education (IOSRJRME) - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 1

Abstract

The studies developed at the School of Architecture and Urbanism at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro - FAU/UFRJ, using the project aid tool, wind tunnel (WT), deal with simulation of scenarios, real or hypothetical, to produce comparative diagnosis and analysis of the effects of the wind relative to the built volumes and empty spaces. From the diagnostics, wind effects can be positive or negative in relation to the tropical climate, for the various proposals and existing urban provisions. This research is directly related to the visualization of experiments. The aim is to develop didactic materials and experiments to facilitate the visualization of the wind trajectories in urban and architectural models. The tests allow designers to recognize their ability to interfere with the dynamics of wind, often through simple changes, which may result in substantial gains in environmental comfort. Architectural and urban have been developed for use in the experiments.
