RWIND

Dlubal Software

The wind simulation program RWIND, like the other Dlubal Software programs, is easy to use and reliably provides the required result. If using RWIND, the wind will certainly not be taken out of the sails of your project. RWIND allows you to analyze wind flows (digital wind tunnel) around buildings or any other objects. For this, RWIND uses a CFD simulation (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and shows you how the wind flows affect the generated structures. Run a wind simulation for simple or complex structures – the result will always speak for itself. You can then simply import the wind loads calculated with RWIND into RFEM or RSTAB.
