Abstract:

At present, a modeling method for the study of safety issues of buildings and structures exposed to meteorological and climatic impacts is promising when using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD-methods). Modeling, with CFD methods using, can be implemented to simulate a full-scale experiment with certain limitations and assumptions. Computational fluid dynamics methods can provide a great amount of information on the dynamics of a hypothetical dangerous situation, its consequences and risk assessments.

The purpose of this work is to develop methodological approaches to assessing the meteorological and climatic load on the objects of cultural heritage of the Crimean Peninsula and conduct a partial assessment of one of the objects.

Based on the analysis of the literature data [1–13], the following sequence of actions can be compiled to perform numerical studies to assess the meteorological and climatic load on objects of cultural and historical heritage:

  1. Statement of the research problem;
  2. Selection of the calculation method;
  3. Development of a physical model;
  4. Selection of the settlement code;
  5. Selection and construction of the computational domain;
  6. Choosing a computer model.

Wind is one of the main climatic factors having a dominant effect on climate formation in the coastal areas, as these areas are zones with increased wind speed. The assessment of the impact of the wind regime is one of the main architectural and climatic tasks considered at the level of the coastal area.

In this regard, the main efforts to model the processes of the impact of meteorological and climatic load on individual objects of cultural and historical heritage are aimed at assessing the wind impact.

Keywords: atmosphere, meteorology, climatology, dangerous phenomena.
