Fluid Dynamics
FLUID DYNAMICS - JENNA EMMANOUILIDES
Fluid Dynamics n. (used with a sing. verb)The branch of applied science that is concerned with the movement of gases and liquids.
FLUID DYNAMICS - DEFINITION
Laminar flow –noun Hydraulics, Mechanics.the flow of a viscous fluid in which particles of the fluid move in parallel layers, each of which has a constant velocity but is in motion relative to its neighboring layers.
Turbulent flow –noun Hydraulics.the flow of a fluid past an object such that the velocity at any fixed point in the fluid varies ir-regularly.
Cavitationn.
1. The sudden formation and collapse of low-pressure bubbles in liquids by means of me-chanical forces, such as those resulting from rotation of a marine propeller. 2. The pitting of a solid surface. 3. Medicine. The formation of cavities in a body tissue or an organ, especially those formed in the lung as a result of tuberculosis.
Vortex:
A vortex (pl. vortices) is a spinning, often turbulent, flow of fluid. Any spiral motion with closed streamlines is vortex flow. The motion of the fluid swirling rapidly around a center is called a vortex. The speed and rate of rotation of the fluid are greatest at the center, and decrease progressively with distance from the center.

FLUID DYNAMICS - HUMMINGBIRD
A hummingbird can fly forwards, backwards, up, down, sideways or hover in space. For a humming bird to hover, their wings move forward and backwards in a repetitive figure eight.Hummingbirds produce 75% of their weight support during the down stroke and 25% during the upstroke. Some of this asymmetry could be due to inversion of their cambered wings during upstroke. What makes a humming bird aerodynamic are the vortices produced by the motion of its wings.
FLUID DYNAMICS - HUMMINGBIRD
Hummingbird - DeHavilland DH 53 Hummingbird
The wake of the hummingbirds wings demonstrates that small vortices are created during the hummingbirds down stroke, indicating that the ratio of internal forces is extremely low, allowing an upwards stroke to follow, thus operating at Reynolds number sufficiently low enough to exploit a key mechanism, typical to that of an insect hovering. Therefore it may be possible that the hummingbird is exploiting a key mechanism typical to that of an insect hovering.

...According to renowned Italian architect Dr. David Fisher, “the Dynamic Tower is the first building designed to be self-powered, with the ability to generate electricity for itself, as well as for nearby buildings. It achieves this feat with 79 wind turbines, making it a true green power plant.”...
PRECIDENTS
The building’s stable core resembles a thick trunk that runs from the ground up, with the floors acting like branches and leaves that shadow the rhythms of nature. Dr. Fisher states, “Today’s life is dynamic, so the space we are living in should be dynamic as well, adjustable to our needs that change to our concept of design and to our mood. The buildings will follow the rhythms of nature, they will change direction and shape from spring to summer, from sunrise to sunset, and adjust themselves to the weather, these buildings will be alive.”

Inspired by the geometrical order of a snowflake and the aerodynamics of a Formula 1 racing car, the tower encapsulates speed, fluid dynamics, future technology and natural patterns of organization. Rather than purely mimicking shapes in nature for their elegance and unpredictability, the architects learned from nature’s own geometrical orders creating highly efficient structures and intriguing spaces.

The cables carry both wind uplift and downloads in the same way, resulting in a very efficient structure. This inherent efficiency,combined with the aerodynamic shape of the envelope, means that loads should be small enough to be carried on conventional pad foundations. Differential settlement of the masts then will be catered for by jacking up the base connections as necessary.
PRECIDENTS
Wind effects are often the driving factor in the design of large roof structures. In particular, turbulent wind flows have the potential to exert significant loading on large lightweight roof structures including augmentations due to dynamic effects.
Rima TaherHurrican Proof Building
Studies were conducted on cases such as Hurricane Andrew, which hit Florida in the 1990s, and based on wind-tunnel testing of reduced-scale models, led to the identification of a square building with a four-ridge roof and a vertical element with aerodynamic characteristics as the main structural axis - the shape offering the most resistance to extremely violent natural phenomena.

Skyscraper to be situated over the existing Belaruska Train Station in Moscow, Russia.The project delaminates the performative layers necessary for high-rise design structure, weatherized enclosure, solar control, circulation, and mechanical systems
in order to comfort two divergent problems. Ecollogically the de-laminated layers allow for the “interiorization” of multiple climate zones. Each paired layer of glass traps a zone of passively conditioned air. Each progressive layer of air insulates the layers
within. During times of extreme cold and heat, the inhabitants of the sky scraper canwithdraw into the inner layers, and move outwards during optimal weather, or as required without wasting much energy.

Fluid Flow: Cavitation
Here you can see vapour bubbles of a fl owing liquid in a region where the pressure of the liquid falls below its vapour pressure.The vapour bubbles surround the jet stream which penetrates the surface of still water due to the change in pressure.
EXPERIMENT 1
Turbulence and Vortices
Turbulence from the hairdryer is holding up the christmas decoration. As the airflows you get tur-bulence above here, and the turbulence creates a lower pressure. Therefore, the vortices which are the turbulence, are keeping the christmas decoration up.The reason why it is so stable is because the velocity at the ball is the highest as it is diverging the air as it is comming out.
When the ball is pushed to the side it has a lower stabilty to one side and is pushed back into the centre.The stronger the airflow the further the ball sits and the more angulated the air can be directed.

EXPERIMENT 3
Above you can see that the pressure applied to the balloons is minimal. Allowing them to maintain to a certain extent their original form.
Bellow the pressure upon the balloons has increased, therefore, the density of the balloons has increased.

INTERESTS IN FLUID DYNAMICS
I am interested in looking at how an instance of ‘Fluid Flow’ can influ-ence an aerodynamic form. An instance of “Fluid Flow’ in an experi-ment may be frozen and replicated in a solid form. This form created may then influence the final design in a more aerodynamic nature.
Looking into smoke as an example, as smoke moves through air, its pigmentation allows you to see its gaseous nature move though air in a path of least resistance. An instance of this flow would be captured and amended to suit the required characteristics of the appropriate form required for my design.
QUESTION:If one was to simulate a fluid flow, then the form of an instance during the flow was converted into a physical form, would it have aerodynamic properties?Exmple: If a moment during the cavitational experiment conducted was captured and produced as a 3d form, if it would act as an aerodynamic structure?
Interest in Fluid Dynamics
Taking the Cavitation experiment from above, i have considered using ‘bubbles’ which are produced during the experiment to influence the facade. The proposal is to have ‘bubbles’ on areas of the facade which would internally need ventilation, allowing the facade to have 2 states: an open one; allowing for natural ventilation, as well as a closed state; for the more extreme conditions. The appatures of the ‘bubbles’ would be dependant on the weaher conditions.
Fluid Flow Facade: Bubbles formed during Cavitation experiments
FACADE IDEAS
The ‘bubbles’ may also have a variety of functions, such as; allowing natural daylight into the building and possibly assist in power generation.
FACADE IDEAS
FrameFrame
Using the ‘bubbles’ as a frame for the external skin. This skin would act as an outer shell, protecting the building from extreme conditions and at the same time exposing the building to the conditions which the habitants may require for a more comfortable environemnt internally.
The interntions for this very early scheme is that it not only acts as an external skin, but also acts as part of the buildings facade/structural system where necessary.
The more curvature envolved in the skin/facade, the more intense the ‘bubbles’ become and the smaller.

When looking into natural movement in nature, I chose to look at the Hyacinth flower and Pine cone and how they respond naturally to the elements which surround them. Their movements respond to the elements to better protect themselves.
Hyacinth Flower: During the dark and the cold, the Hyacinth flower will close. However, during the sunlight it will open.

History
Although the Danube river has been inextricably connected with Vienna, for centuries, it had played only a subordinate role in the city of Vienna.
Due to numerous floods the Danube River caused regularly, it was omitted from the urban area. Buildings grew up in Vienna on both sides of the Danube - but not up to the Danube. Only through the Danube-regulation and the creation of the relief arm New Danube, with Danube Island, in the 1970s, was the surrounding cityscape of the Danube of interest to builders.
The EXPO 1991 from the resulting AG Vienna Development for the Danube Region AG (WED) to the largest Austrian banks and insurance companies involved, own and is responsible for the overall development. The area, still undeveloped, arose as an internationally acclaimed urban center with pioneering residential and office buildings, research facilities, recreational facilities and event locations: the Danube City also known as VIENNA DC.
The total area is 17.4 hectares. Of this total, approximately 1.7 million cubic meters are used for construction, which represents a gross floor area of approximately 500,000 square meters. Nearly two-thirds of those buildings are already completed and utilized.
Current
Approximately 7,500 people currently live and work in this new “city within a city”. With the overall expansion, which is expected to be completed in 2012, the population could increase to 15,000.
Danube City has: stores, restaurants, cafes, offices, a school and a church. The area bordering the Danube Island has recreation areas, Donaupark and Old Danube. The Danube City has two direct connections to the motorway network; and the Vienna International Airport is about 20 minutes away.
Future
Due to the rapid development, the AG WED by French architect Dominique Perrault a new master plan for the remaining plots conceive. The focus of the plan is the design of the core area, still undeveloped, and the transition zone to the New Danube. In the core area, the plan is to create two distinct high-rise towers - DC Tower 1, with up to 220 meters, and the DC Tower 2, at 160 meters above sea level - a new density. Of particular importance is the establishment of the highest tower of Austria - the 1st DC Tower. The DC Tower 2, with about 160 meters in height and 46 floors, is designed to be slightly lower.
A third tower at 100 meters will complement the skyline. Construction is expected after the DC Towers in 5 years. In addition, also planned are: a block of flats (about 50 meters high), a house of the cultures of about 70m, and a Sea Life Center on Überplattung.

Site AnalysisWinning Comitition - Vienna DC Towers: Dominique Perrault
Vienna DC Towers
With the two towers, designed by Dominique Perrault in cooperation with Hoffmann-Janz Architekten Wien, Vienna is now receiving two further landmarks which are both important and impressive. The architect Dominique Perrault, who became well-known for his design of the National Library in Paris, conceived a master plan for the remaining construction sites of the VIENNA DC Donau-City. This plan not only envisages two breathtaking buildings, but above all areas for meeting and communicating which correspond to the Danube nearby. The demands: State of the art as far as construction goes and an emotional statement for a modern interpretation of the business location Vienna. These buildings are not primarily about setting new records on height, but rather about creating sophisticated buildings which are convincing due to their design and their quality. The heights of the DC Towers, with their breathtaking view, are a result of the ambition to retain the aesthetically attractive form of a slim tower combined with the planned cubic volume. This vertical expansion should also set a strong impulse for the further hori-zontal development of the Donau-City.

Venturi Effect
The Venturi effect is the reduction in fluid pressure that results when a fluid flows through a constricted section of pipe. The fluid velocity must increase through the constriction to satisfy the equation of continuity, while its pressure must decrease due to conservation of energy: the gain in kinetic energy is balanced by a drop in pressure or a pressure gradient force. An equation for the drop in pressure due to venturi effect may be derived from a combination of Bernoulli’s principle and the equation of continuity.

DEVELOPEMENT OF FACADE
Simplification of Periodic PatternFacade Exploration and Power Generation
Dynamic Aeroelasticity studies the interactions among aero-dynamic, elastic, and inertial forces. Examples of dynamic aeroelastic phenomena are:
Flutter
Flutter is a self-feeding and potentially destructive vibration where aerodynamic forces on an object couple with a structure’s natural mode of vibration to produce rapid periodic motion. Flutter can occur in any object within a strong fluid flow, under the conditions that a positive feedback occurs between the structure’s natural vibration and the aerodynamic forces. That is, that the vibrational movement of the object increases an aerodynamic load which in turn drives the object to move further. If the energy during the period of aerodynamic excitation is larger than the natural damping of the system, the level of vibration will increase. The vibration levels can thus build up and are only limited when the aerodynamic or mechanical damping of the object match the energy input, this often results in large amplitudes and can lead to rapid failure. It is however not always a destructive force; recent progress has been made in wind generators, for the third world designed specifically to take advantage of this effect. A type of wind generator using this effect is known as the Windbelt.

Secondary Skin
The Secondary Skin will have the potential to move along the structural Grid, alowing the skin to tense during calmer witnd conditons and relax, to allow the wind to morph the skin and generate power.
Furthermore, the triangular components themselves have the potential to generate power also via the Pizo Electric Effect.
Building From
FORM
The ‘cylindircal’ form of the building allows for the wind to flow around it, reducing the force applied onto the tower as it does not act as an obsticale in the winds path.
The building channels the wind up the North Westerly Facade to direct wind flow away from the occupied areas. The form of the building attempts to redirect the wind away from the circulation between buildings 1 and 2, as well as the open spaces within the 2 buildings.
The forms shown here extends over both buildings. The tower and the smaller building on the second site, sheltering both from the winds. However this may occur by the use of the skin, during winter it can capture/deflect wind from the area and in summer it can move to other areas of the tower, where needed to generate power.
The skin that will be applied to the structural system, not only generates power but acts as a cushion for the tower. It reduces the imact the wind would have on the building if it was not deflected.
