Masdar Headquarters Wind Cone Analysis INTRODUCTION MASDAR headquarters is a multi-story mixed use building to be located in Abu Dhabi, UAE. It has been designed to be a net-zero energy building, meaning it will produce more energy than it consumes. In order to accomplish this feat, a number of energy saving measures will be implemented. One such measure is a collection of hollow hyperbolic towers collectively referred to as wind cones. These cones are evenly distributed throughout the building. Each tower, constructed of clear glass panels, begins at the ground level enclosing open courtyards and extends past the top of the building and above the canopy covering the building overhead. The primary functions of the cones are to provide natural ventilation of courtyards during daytime building operation and to passively introduce natural daylight into the center of the building. Environmental Systems Design located in Chicago, IL, USA, has been tasked with analyzing the effectiveness of the wind cone component of the MASDAR headquarters design using CFD software. A separate study of the wind cones has been conducted concurrently by RWDI based in Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Data from the RWDI study has been obtained from a scale model placed in a wind tunnel. The following report details ESDs methods, assumptions, results, and conclusions to date as well as providing a comparison to the results obtained by RWDI. METHODOLOGY The first step taken was to identify the desired function of the wind cones and understand the underlying physics at work. A primary function of these cones is to provide natural ventilation of the ground plane during daytime building operation. The intent is for hot used air to be expelled from the top of the cone, while cooler fresh air is induced into the bottom of the cone. In order to create airflow, a difference in pressure must be created. In the wind cones there are two components responsible for this pressure difference; these are thermal buoyancy effects, and wind induced ventilation effects.
Wind from the NW
Figure 1 and 2: During the day, the prevailing winds blow from the North West, over the stack, pulling hot, old air out of the atrium.
The results indicate that wind of the direction and magnitude typically experienced in Abu Dhabi will draw air out of the cone. This air is replaced from the bottom of the cone, naturally ventilating the ground level courtyards as desired. Having proved the primary function of the wind cones, a secondary function was also investigated. Due to the unique geography of Abu Dhabi, the wind direction experienced during nighttime hours is most often opposite the Northwesterly wind seen during the day. This nighttime wind out of the Southeast is cooler than its daytime counterpart. A proposed secondary function of the wind cone is to capture this air and direct it into and down the cone. The topmost section of the cone has been designed to this end. The cone opening is slanted, rather than horizontal. This causes wind traveling from the Northwest to move quickly and smoothly past the cone. However, wind from the Southeast impinges on the inside of the cone. This air is slowed quickly and creates a high pressure area, forcing air into the cone. This condition was tested by changing the direction of the wind in the original model. A gradient plot of air speed magnitudes and a plot displaying airflow vectors can be found in figures 3 and 4 respectively.
Wind from the SE
Figure 3 and 4: At night, the prevailing winds blow from the South East, blowing cool air into the atrium. As can be seen in the figures above, the model indicates that wind from the southeast is directed into the top opening and down the cone. In this first phase of the analysis, the model has confirmed that wind induced effects on the airflow produce the desired results in both the primary (NW wind, air out) and secondary modes (SE wind, air in). Having investigated the wind induced effect on airflow, the analysis turned to the influence of thermal loads on the airflow. Thermal effects The top portion of the wind cone rises above the canopy. The top opening of the wind cone is equipped with dampers to allow for manual control of air movement. During the day, all of these surfaces are subject to the thermal load of the sun. This solar load, along with internal heat loads internal to the cone are the driving force behind the airflow due to buoyancy effects. In order to simulate this effect, a heat source was placed in the center of the cone. It was found that significant upward air flow is developed due to buoyancy. Refer to Figure 5 below for the predicted upward air flow in the cone due to buoyancy. The change in airflow is shown for increasing temperature deltas between the ground level and top of the cone. Under certain conditions this thermal buoyancy effect exceeds the predicted wind induced downward flow resulting in upward air flow in nearly all conditions.
Figure 8 Figure 8
The results in Figure 8 show that while the airflow patterns around the two cones vary slightly, there is little change in the airflow into the base or out of the top of the cone. The southeast wind is not considered here, as ESDs thermal studies, as well as RWDIs wind tunnel results indicate that it is unlikely that consistent airflow into the cone can be achieved in the secondary mode of operation. Cone entrance and exit air speed The final step in the analysis of the wind cones was to ensure that the flow rate at the occupied level was optimal for occupant comfort. Airflow increases the rate of evaporation of perspiration from the skin and carries heat away from the body, increasing personal comfort. However, if airflow becomes too great it can produce objectionable and disruptive drafts. Using the results from the improved model, wind velocities were measured at the intake and exhaust openings of the cones. The models indicate an average airspeed of 1 m/s on average out of the wind cones (Figure 9). The models also indicate airspeed of approximately 1 m/s out of each of the four entrances to the base of the cone (Figure 10). Inside the range of ambient temperatures expected in the courtyard, this airspeed is within the range of human comfort. It will provide enough movement to give the benefit of perceived cooling, without being disruptive. As a point of reference, air moving at 1 m/s is just enough to begin disturbing papers on a desk. If airflow is increased, air entering the base of the cone may reach speeds that become objectionable to occupants. This is not expected to be an issue, as the wind cones are equipped with dampers which will allow for manual control of the airflow through the cone.
Because the expected wind cone air velocity is low in comparison to the wind turbine rated speed and in some cases does not meet the start-up velocity, wind turbines installed in the MASDAR wind cones cannot be expected to add significantly to MASDARs energy production. For this reason, incorporating wind turbines into the wind cone design is not recommended.

Design Guidelines
Highly sustainable design is a core goal for good lighting practice. Good daylighting begins with an understanding of the relationship between the building faces and the track of the sun through the sky and seasons. Careful envelope design can maximize available daylight, bringing diffuse natural light into the building as far as possible while using shading and advanced glazing to control visual glare and solar heat gain at the perimeter. Lighting systems and strategies will maximize human vision and comfort, while supporting the architectural vision. Lighting will be used to generate clear visual hierarchies throughout the project, emphasizing legibility, human vision, and wayfinding.
Light is our common inheritance; a powerful expression of the spirit of place; the great facilitator of work, play, learning, commerce,
We take our cues from nature in refining the building envelope and systems to maximize daylight benefits and minimize energy consumption.

Base Case
General reflectance and light transmission values are assumed: floor=30% refl., ceiling=80% refl., cone glass=70% VLT, roof glass=50% VLT. Base Case (Small Aperture): assumed oculus diameter=11m. Large Aperture: oculus diameter=33m (PV panels removed).

Daylight Factor (DF): a measure of the percentage of daylight in a space as compared to the amount of light outside, using a simulated overcast sky. DF provides a good metric to predict how well daylit a space will be. DF of 2 to 3 (%) is considered the minimum requirement for a daylit space.
Remarks
Daylighting contribution of the cone to perimeter office areas drops off quickly, except at the top floor and in the atrium space at the base of the cone.
The intervening floor plates have small areas of daylit space (DF >2%) within 4m of the cone perimeter.
The light levels drop beyond this area, resulting in a relatively darker floor plate with a bright central view. Supplemental electric lighting will be required in offices to balance brightness perception.
Light wells help to distribute some daylight from the top floor down to lower floors, though the resultant light levels are still relatively low.
Furniture and walls may block some light. It will be important to organize activities and spaces to maximize daylight utilization.
ISSUES:
In this basic configuration, the cone will essentially be a glowing lantern; its brightness will be offset with electric lighting deeper in the floor plate to achieve visual comfort.
Both models (large and small apertures) yield similar results, showing that a larger daylight opening does not significantly expand the

Seasonal Daylight Availability Analysis

Using climate data from Abu Dhabi, this study tracks the amount of energy from the sun reaching ground level at the base of the cone. The study covers two time periods: March 22 - Sept 21 (Summer), and Sept 22 March 21 (Winter). The study measures Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR), a measure of light falling on a surface that is within the spectrum that is useful to plants in the process of photosynthesis (400-700 nanometers). Values are expressed as Watt-hours per square meter (Wh/m2) and represent the daily average (total throughout the study period divided by number of days). Average Daily Total shows the total amount of energy from the sun and sky reaching the base of the cone (full spectrum) on an average day. Model geometry assumes smaller aperture (Base Case), with no glazing placed in oculus of cone. No light from the perimeter is included in this study.

Garden Courtyard: Daylight Factor

Modeled space includes approximately half of the garden courtyard (on Level 4) with surrounding geometry, including shading PV panels. The PV panels, Level 5, and Level 6 have the most impact in shading the courtyard, leaving the cones and the space between Level 6 and the roof to provide natural light to the space. This study determines the Daylight Factor of the courtyard space. Daylight Factor (DF) is the percentage of light from an overcast sky that illuminates an interior space. DF% can be translated to illuminance values (in Lux) if the exterior illuminance values are known.
Daylight Factor
Remarks
The courtyard has a Daylight Factor ranging from 10% to 32% with an average value of 19%. Based on latitude, the Design Sky value for Abu Dhabi is 9200 Lux. A space of DF 19% should be receiving 1748 Lux from a clear sky, with no direct sun. This value (1748 lux) is based on Design Sky, which is the 15th percentile sky value. This means that 15% of the year light levels will be less than 1748 lux, and 85% of the year light levels will be more than 1748 lux. 15% of a year is about 8 weeks, and the lower light levels from the clear sky will likely occur mid-November to midJanuary.

Garden Courtyard: Average Daily Total

Modeled space includes approximately half of the garden courtyard (on Level 4) with surrounding geometry. PV panels were not included in this calculation, due to incomplete modeling. The roof, Level 5, and Level 6 have the most impact in shading the courtyard, leaving the cones and the space between Level 6 and the roof to provide natural light to the space. Additional light will filter through the PV panels in small amounts; that light is not factored into this study. The study determines the Daily Total radiant energy of the courtyard space using climate data from Abu Dhabi. The Daily Total can be converted from Watt-hours per square meter (Wh/m2) to Average Daily Lux: the Lux values are summed up in the Remarks section. Three days are studied to get a minimum, maximum, and median Daily Total for the year: respectively, the days studied are December 21, June 21, and September 21.

Two types of lighting illuminate the space: direct sun and diffuse sky. The direct sun path is illustrated by the red and orange area in the graphic. Diffuse sky illumination (blue and purple area) is brighter the closer it is to the direct sun path. Areas in the direct sun path receive illumination in the range of 8500 lux to 40000 lux. All other areas (outside direct sun path) receive diffuse illumination in the range of 850 lux to 2850 lux.

Vertical shading devices oriented exactly to the angle of the site (e.g. 38 instead of 45) results in slightly better shading of direct sun throughout the year.

Layers of light build up over the cone surface to emphasize the structure. Hi gh Output concealed LE D light fittings High Output LED (HO-LED) light fittings provide a subtle wash on interior cone walls. The light fittings are placed in concealed slot locations at Levels 1 and 6. Ceramic Metal Halide (low wattage metal halide) light fittings are mounted at the Level 6 slot location as angled downlights, providing an accent and ambient light to programmed areas within the cones.

Indirect LED fittings provide a consistent glow at the outside cone perimeter. This creates a lighting zone for office use, mimicking the area lit by sky light during daylight hours.

Performance Cone Lighting

General architectural lighting in the Performance Cone will match the lighting in other cones. For performances, a circular lighting truss will be provided as a mounting location for theatrical light fittings, dimming control, and audio-visual equipment. The truss will be suspended from the upper ring architectural lighting position within the cone and be rigged with aircraft cable electric winches to allow adjustable mounting locations for performance flexibility, ease of maintenance, and to remain unobtrusive when not in use. The architectural lighting control system will be provided with a theatrical style DMX512 control input station in an appropriate nearby location to allow the use of small theatrical lighting consoles as required for show operation.

Electric Lighting Concept Moonlighting at Roof Garden

This concept has two basic components ambient lighting and accent lighting. Ambient lighting is provided by roof mounted clusters of low wattage / low brightness metal halide moonlight area lights. Target ambient illuminance levels (lux) are 30 - 50 lux of uniform light. Cool white ambient light will mimic the quality of moonlight, with lamps rated at 4100K color temperature.

Small scale / low power light fixtures will serve as accent lights for variety and texture for the roof garden. Lamps in these fixtures will be warm white rated at 3000K color temperature. This tiered system is a precision / layered approach which places light where needed without waste. Using contrasting light color and brightness, this approach will provide higher vertical illumination (vlux), which aids in overall visual sharpness and environmental quality. With active lighting controls (daylight sensing, occupancy sensors and time controllers), this is a low power solution, rich in visual delight.
