Research on wind-induced interference effect of adjacent super tall buildings based on two-aeroelastic-model wind tunnel test
Due to the close proximity of super high-rise buildings in densely populated urban centers
the significant impact of wind-induced interference on adjacent structures must be taken into consideration. Previous research did
not employ two aeroelastic models to investigate the wind-induced interference effect between two adjacent super-tall buildings. As a result
the aeroelastic effect and wind-induced interference effect could not be well reflected. In this paper
based on a series of two-aeroelastic-model wind tunnel tests
the aerodynamic interference effect of the across-wind response of two adjacent square high-rise buildings is studied. The influences of interference location
reduced wind speed (
U
r
)
dynamic characteristics
and model type on the aerodynamic interference factors (
I
IF
) of across-wind acceleration response are analyzed. The wind tunnel tests were conducted at 35 interference locations
with 18 reduced wind speeds tested at each location
and contour maps of the interference factors were obtained. The results show that
in tandem arrangements
I
IF
reaches 1.1–1.3 at
U
r
=7–8 and
U
r

with higher
I
IF
observed when the downstream disturbing building is closer to the target building; in side-by-side arrangements
I
IF
rises to 1.2–1.3 near
U
r
=8 due to the narrow gap effect when the spacing exceeds twice the building width
while closer spacing suppresses the response as the two buildings behave as a single entity; in oblique upstream arrangements
the target building is significantly affected by the high-speed wake vortices of the disturbing building
with
I
IF
reaching 1.6–2.0 at high reduced wind speeds. Subsequently
wind tunnel tests are performed on a one-rigid-one-aeroelastic building model at typical interference locations. Upon comparing the results of two kinds of wind tunnel tests
it was found that the aeroelastic effect increases the absolute negative aerodynamic damping of disturbed buildings at medium and high wind speeds
and the interference factor als
o increases. Neglecting the aerodynamic effect of disturbing buildings can bias the evaluation results of wind-induced response towards danger.
