| Summary: | The haze-fog particle dispersion in urban communities will cause serious health and environmental problems, which has aroused society attention. The aim of the present investigation is to reveal the underlying mechanisms of haze-fog particle dispersion via Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method, and then to provide a groundwork for the optimal spatial arrangement of urban architecture. The Delayed Detached-eddy Simulation turbulence model (DDES) and Discrete Phase Model (DPM) are utilized to investigate the wind flow distribution and the particle dispersion around the building group. The numerical results show that the particle dispersion is dominated by the incoming wind flow, the layout of architectural space and the type and distribution of vortex. The ‘single body’ wake pattern and the vortex impingement wake pattern are identified in the wind flow field, which have different effects on the distribution of haze-fog particle. The cavity formed by the layout of the building group induces primary vortex and secondary vortex, which will make it more difficult for the particles entering the square cavity to flow out. Moreover, the concentration of the particle in the rear of the buildings is relatively low due the effect of attached vortices.
