Domed Roofs for Better Energy Efficient Architecture; Experimental Validation of Wind Pressures on a Hemispherical Dome
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper is to measure wind velocity on dome in case of old houses of Isfahan and Kashan in Iran. To analyze wind velocity, the pressure coefficient for zero and ninety degrees angles were calculated separately for those domes in order to compare the results with one or more valid reference; after studying the effects of wind on domes the references were selected for comparing, and the experimental results achieved by Mr. Taylor and the experimental results by Mr. Bahadori were compared to the results achieved by the devices installed on the domes of Isfahan and Kashan and these comparison lead to noticeable results related to computer calculations in the wind tunnel model. The results shows whether these calculations could be used in Iran or not, and could these calculations be used instead of the actual measuring. In this paper, all the measurements have been done in real environment system.
