Under the common influence of factors including complex terrain, subtropical high pressure, and monsoon weather, the wind field in the alpine canyon areas of is complex and changeable, and it is easy to form the “narrow pipe effect”, which leads to disastrous gales that have a great impact on the construction and operation of large-scale projects. In this paper, based on Fluent, a fluid dynamics computing software, a standard turbulence model and PISO algorithm are used to study the variation of wind velocity field near the dam during dam construction and the influence of dam construction on the wind velocity field, taking the level 7 north wind in Baihetan Hydropower Station as a typical calculation condition. The research results show that the blocking effect of the dam body makes the wind velocity field at the top of the dam generate flow separation and wind field uplift, and a low wind velocity zone forms below the dam elevation. When the dam elevation is 650 m and 750 m, the wind speed within the cable platform is about 15 m/s to 16 m/s, and the channel length of the significant influence area by the wind speed vertical distribution downstream of the dam is 4.4 H_t and 4.5 H_t (H_t being the dam height). The significant influence heights of the wind velocity field at the top of the dam are 2.0 H_t and 3.0 H_t respectively. When the dam is filled to the normal water level of 825 m, the channel length of the significant influence area by the wind field downstream of the dam is 8.0 times the dam height (2.3 km), and the maximum influence channel length is 30.4 times the dam height (8.8 km). The influence height of the dam top reaches about 1500 m height, which is 3.5 times the dam height.
