I. INTRODUCTION
In past decades the studies of wind flow on buildings are
performed in several parts of world. Unagitated disastrous
effects such as collapse of buildings, oscillation of buildings
and in order to consider the stability and safety of building a
wind flow analysis is concerned. When wind attacks the
building it creates positive pressure, negative pressure (suction)
and uplift on the roofs. Therefore wind flow analysis is done in
cluster of staggered and grid buildings using Autodesk Flow
Design. Four different kinds of model are developed to
investigate the pressure distribution in each staggered and grid
buildings. So far, few investigations and research works were
done in cluster of staggered and grid buildings using Autodesk
Flow Design.
Aishe Zhanga,b,, Cuilan Gao, Ling Zhang[1] has made
their investigation on numerical simulation of the wind field
around different building arrangements. Several models of
different parameters are created and pressure distribution of the
building is found and pressure correction is done by SIMPLEC
method. Aishe Zhang, Ming Gu[2] has made their
investigations on Wind tunnel tests and numerical simulations
of wind pressures on buildings in staggered arrangement. The
buildings are arranged staggered and adjacent to each other.

The inferences are the air flow is maximum on the right side
of the building. The suction is maximum on the left top most
corner of the building. The swirls of the airflow on the frontal
side of the layout.

The inferences are the air flow between the buildings is less
due to the grid arrangement. The suction is developed on both
right side and left side of the layout. The windward side of the
layout is right side and leeward side is left side in the layout.
B. Grid buildings on irregular layout (left side)
The buildings are arranged on irregular layout in which the
buildings are arranged irregularly on the left side of the layout.
The spacing between the buildings is constant. To investigate
the air flow, pressure distribution, suction developed between
the buildings the model undergoes a computerized wind tunnel
analysis.
