            Abstract : 
According to wind characteristics in the built environment, favorable conditions of wind power in the built environment were represented. Some indexes which evaluate available wind resources in the built environment were first put forward, and wind resources of three basic building forms integrated with wind turbines were discussed, which can be a reference to the promotion and application of wind power in the built environment.
