Abstract: Abstract This study shows the numerical model which has the actual shape of the urban surface in order to analyze the wind turbulence in a city by large eddy simulation (LES) technique. Predictive accuracy of LES for the urban heat island, the hazardous gas dispersion or failure of buildings by wind gust was examined. Also, the numerical results were provided for realizing appropriate urban environment.
