We provide hints and tips to help you get started with the basic program RFEM.
RWIND Simulation | Wind Flow in Digital Wind Tunnel and Wind Load Generation
Video
First Steps with RFEM
Description
With the individual program RWIND Simulation, wind flows (digital wind tunnel) around buildings or other objects of any shape can be analyzed by means of CFD simulation (Computational Fluid Dynamics). The generated wind loads acting on these objects can be imported into the structural analysis program RFEM or RSTAB.
This video shows you the features, performance, and application of RWIND Simulation in a nutshell.

Wind Simulation Using RWIND Simulation and Transferring Wind Forces to RFEM or RSTAB
Computer technology has a firm grip on digital structural analysis and design. With each new development, the involved planners are able to push the limits of what is feasible upwards.

Model Surface Layer Mesh in RWIND Simulation
The meshing algorithm of RWIND Simulation uses the boundary layer option to mesh the area near the model surface with a voluminous layer mesh. The number of layers is controlled by a user-defined parameter.
This fine mesh in the area of the model surface helps to represent the wind velocity close to the surface.
- How does RWIND Simulation determine the pressure due to the wind load on the model areas?
- Which mesh size should be set for a numerical wind flow analysis?
- What is the optimal wind tunnel size in RWIND Simulation?
- Is there the ability to apply the adjusted wind tunnel dimensions in RWIND Simulation for all wind load cases instead of making the revision manually for each load case?
- On the dlubal.com website, I found the option to display the results along a line, or the option to enter the points manually. Where can I find this result view?
- I have defined a wind profile for RWIND Simulation up to a height of 100 m. Is the wind profile dependent on the size of the wind tunnel?
- How can I delete the RWIND Simulation results in an RFEM or RSTAB model?
- Is it possible to display the RWIND Simulation results in ParaView?
- How is the Cp coefficient of the surface result determined in RWIND Simulation?
- How can I import an IFC model into the RWIND Simulation environment?
