Article Description| To create the world’s most voluminous, naturally ventilated museum space for the California Academy of Sciences, the San Francisco office of project consulting engineer Arup commissioned wind-tunnel tests to confirm its computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models. Then it rebuilt its CFD model. The combined studies took 18 weeks, which is 16 weeks more than it would have taken to study a simple rectilinear space, says Karl Lyndon, Arup’s project mechanical engineer. |
