Extreme meteorological disasters such as typhoons pose a serious threat to the safety of engineering structures.Therefore,the refined simulation on the near-surface atmospheric boundary layer(ABL)is valuable for civil engineering.Large-eddy simulation(LES)implemented in the weather research and forecating(WRF)model has the advantages of multiple options of numerical schemes and high accuracy.It is generally suitable for the refined simulation of the near-surface wind field,although the performance of simulation results is closely related to the numerical methods.This paper assesses the impacts of vital parameters regarding subfilter-scale(SFS)stress models,mesh size,and spatial difference schemes within WRF-LES to simulate the ideal ABL in order to figure out appropriate numerical schemes for the refined simulation of the near-surface wind field.The wind field characteristics are addressed and analyzed such as mean wind speed profile,turbulence intensity profile,and power of spectrum.Comparisons of simulation results among different SFS stress models indicate that the nonlinear backscatter and anisotropy one(NBA1)SFS stress model can effectively improve the accuracy of simulation in the near-surface wind profiles.Investigations of mesh resolution effects indicate that the nonuniformly refined vertical grid near the surface agrees much better with the expected profiles and reduces the expenditure of computational resources.Furthermore,the results show that the even-order spatial difference schemes produce more small-scale turbulent structures than the odd-order difference schemes.The numerical methods of WRF-LES proposed can provide a technical reference for refined simulation of the near-surface wind field and typhoon boundary layer.
