Appropriate large-eddy simulation (LES) guidelines for pedestrian wind environments are being established by the working group of the Architectural Institute of Japan. We conducted LESs for a flow field around an isolated building to clarify the influence of computational conditions on turbulent statistics. We performed a cross-comparison study by examining both experimental and LES results for various computational conditions such as grid arrangements, subgrid scale models, spatial derivation schemes for convection term, and convergence criterion for a coupling algorithm of flow and pressure fields. Results can be used to provide LES guidelines for predicting the pedestrian wind environment.
