Aim of this contribution is to provide insight view into analysis focused on obtaining external pressure coefficients on isolated two storey low - rise building with 15° elevation gable roof using Computer Fluid Dynamics simulation and these are compared to values that offering Eurocodes. Final Volume Model consisting of polyhedral mesh will be used for analysis with two different turbulence models. Mesh was created with respect to y+ parameter, where desired value was below one which leads us to fine mesh type. Secondary aim of this contribution is to compare performance of selected turbulence models. For this purpose were chosen Detached Eddy Simulation and Large Eddy Simulation which are part of the Scale Resolving Simulation turbulence models.
