摘要
This paper gives the results from experiments conducted on 1: 100 scale sharp and round-edged models of Texas Tech University Test Building in a wind tunnel under different flow conditions. The results from experiments show that separation and re-circulation regions exist on rooftops at normal incidence and corner vortices form at ail oblique incidence. There is an enormous effect of rounding of roof edges on the flow and pressure characteristics. Different magnitude of rounding is influencing the pressures and turbulence levels differently.
