A Wind Protection Design Strategy for Airport Terminal Door Bucket Space Based on Wind Environment Simulations

Airport terminal buildings are large public transportation buildings with complex functions and dense crowds, and the wind environment has significant effects on passenger comfort and the energy consumption of air conditioning systems. In this study, we investigated Xianyang T3 Terminal as an example and used the Phoenics software to conduct comprehensive simulations based on different door bucket forms and parameters, as well as comprehensively considering the impacts of different outdoor wind environments. A terminal door bucket windproof design strategy was proposed based on our results. The results showed that door buckets could effectively reduce the entry of outdoor wind, and built-in door buckets performed the best. The width of the door bucket should be set to 9.3–11.3 m and the depth of the door bucket to 6.7–7.7 m. The height of the door bucket had little impact. A side door should be added to the door bucket, so it can be opened when the outdoor wind speed is high, and a mechanical ventilation system should be introduced to improve the indoor ventilation.
