Abstrakt: This data article provides high-quality turbulent inflow boundary data with a high spatial and temporal resolution of a very rough atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) wind tunnel, which can be applied as the large eddy simulation (LES) inflow condition on the Michelstadt test cases. A high-quality LES of the WOTAN wind tunnel of the Environmental Wind Tunnel Laboratory (EWTL) was conducted using OpenFOAM software, and data is stored at a plane at 1000 Hz frequency at the end of the roughness elements. This data serves as the turbulent inflow boundary condition, offering computational fluid dynamics (CFD) researchers a cost-effective means to simulate the benchmark Michelstadt test cases for LES validation. This data will be utilized to perform high-quality LES, which are pivotal in bridging the research gap in understanding the intricate nature of wind dynamics in a realistic urban environment.
