An alarming increase in the frequency of extreme rainfall events necessitates advanced flood risk reduction methods. This study uses ANSYS Fluent to simulate the 'Model urban city' flow experiment, comparing aligned and staggered urban layouts. The simulation's goodness of fit, evaluated by flow depth at probe locations, achieved a Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE) of 0.83, indicating a 'very good' performance. Sensitivity Analysis (SA) indicated that increasing grid coarseness from 1.7 million to 0.1 million cells raised the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) by 15 %. This Research also assessed different mesh treatments for building incorporation in the computational mesh-building hole (BH) and Building Block (BB). The BH method was computationally more efficient, taking about 1 Day compared to 2–3 days for BB. The Building Resistance (BR) method yielded poor results. Employing a sophisticated 3D CFD model, this study provides detailed inputs for high-precision flood risk assessments in urban areas prone to rapid flooding, enhancing the precision and applicability of urban flood models. |
