Resumo Inglês:

The aim of this work was to understand the effect of tall buildings on vortices system in an urban region. Wind tunnel experiments with flow visualization and injection smoke techniques were carried out to analyze the flow pattern in an idealized urban region formed with six rectangular prismatic buildings. These scale model buildings (1/100) were arranged in a symmetric configuration with different aspect ratio H/W.
