This study used computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to analyze the impact of helicopter downwash on pedestrian comfort levels in an urban streetscape. The CFD modeling was validated by comparing simulated air velocities to experimental data. The study found that pedestrian comfort significantly decreased in the immediate area of the helicopter, while minor effects were observed further downstream. Taller buildings tended to improve street-level comfort by disrupting airflow, while narrow streets surrounded by tall buildings funneled downwash toward pedestrians, reducing their comfort. The main conclusion is that while downwash effects are smaller than wind, local mitigation is needed to address its impact on pedestrians.
