Figure 2: Numerical experiment.

Left: Schematic diagram showing the main quantities characterizing the geometric properties of the wind tunnel with an array of fences. L is the spacing between the fences and hf their height. The logarithmic wind velocity profile imposed at the inlet is also shown. Right: Wind velocity magnitude computed using hf = 50 cm, L = 10hf and porosity Φ = 50%. The wind shear velocity at the inlet is u*0 = 0.4 m/s.
