Comparing a building in a low density area, with another one located in a dense urban neighborhood; the wind speed on facades and therefore the temperature of the facade elements varies.

Is the effect of wind speed in such cases marginal or significant? How necessary is that to couple CFD analysis with heating/cooling energy simulation (e.g. using EnergyPlus)?

I would appreciate it if you could reply by referring to valid reference books/scientific papers.
