Wind Tunnel City

High density high-rise environments have significant impact on the air quality and use of space. In Hong Kong it has resulted in poor air quality; a network of podia with supporting facilities; with a mixed cultural background of East and West. Within Hong Kong, Mong Kok is the area with the worst air quality and the least available wind. Therefore, the research question is: How can urban ventilation in Mong Kok, Hong Kong, be triggered by architectural design? By using CFD (computational Fluid Dynamics) a comparison of the current situation and the design proposal can be made to conclude if the air quality has improved.
