الوصف: Nowadays, pollution from traffic remains one of the major sources for contamination in urban areas and it is widely known that substances emitted by vehicles represent a serious hazard to human health; some traffic-related pollutants, such as NO, NOx and CO are responsible for both acute and chronic effects on human health. This is often the case near busy traffic axis in city centers or street canyons. Purpose of this work is to validate the CFD model predictions against the field measurements of pollutants dispersion in an actual urban environment: Göttinger Strasse, Hanover, Germany. In the location, the population exposure to traffic-related pollution is expected to be high. Steady-state simulations have been performed for 18 different wind directions, with an increment of 20°, in order to cover the whole wind rose. A grid and a Schmidt number sensitivity analysis have been carried out in order to determine both the most suitable resolution of the computational geometry and the most suitable parameter to model the turbulence conditions in the street canyon. All CFD simulations have been performed for neutral atmospheric conditions and have been carried out with the CFD code FLUENT 12.1.
