wind analysis with CFD, wind comfort and wind engineering

SimScale 3D Online Simulation Software Allows You To Easily Perform CFD Wind Analysis For Predicting Wind Loads, Optimizing Thermal Comfort Or Controlling Air Contamination.

How It Works

 
1

Upload A CAD Model

Upload a CAD model of the component you want to analyze or copy one of the thousands of publicly available CFD modeling projects as a template for your own simulation setup. See it instantly displayed in 3D and interact with it just as you would with a desktop CAD software.

2

Set Up Your CFD Analysis

Set up your CFD analysis in the Simulation Designer. The SimScale platform provides capabilities for solid mechanics, fluid dynamics and thermal simulation. Once you have chosen the analysis type, the project tree will guide you through the complete workflow of the simulation.

3

Analyze The Results

As soon as your CFD simulation is completed, you can access the results on the platform or download them locally. Validate your design decisions early in the design process, identify optimization potential and predict the performance of your product before building the first physical prototype.

Perform The CFD Analysis You Need

 
Pedestrian Wind Comfort

Pedestrian Wind Comfort

With the complexity of modern urban areas, pedestrian wind environment simulations become a critical factor in urban design, helping to ensure the overall well-being, safety and comfort in pedestrian zones. Predicting and properly assessing the airflow around a building is a difficult and expensive process when using the experimental approach. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques are a practical, cost-efficient, and time-efficient alternative to the field measurements or wind tunnel tests.

Air Quality and Contamination Control

Air Quality and Contamination Control

Finding the optimal location, number, and configuration of the exhaust fans required for ensuring a proper ventilation, while meeting the tenability requirements of CO exposure limit set by health and safety regulations, can be a challenging task. With the help of SimScale you can create a smart ventilation strategy, ensure the efficient removal of high contaminant concentrations in cleanrooms or labs, predict smoke propagation and temperature distribution in underground garages, car parks, subway stations or shopping centers.

Natural Ventilation

Natural Ventilation

There are multiple factors to take into account when deciding how a commercial building should be ventilated, such as the building’s position, wind exposure, entrance locations, and more. To reduce energy consumption, finding a creative idea for ventilation without using any mechanical systems can be very beneficial, from both the ecological and economical perpesctives. SimScale provides you with a sophisticated tool to optimize natural ventilation systems and understand the behavior of your design before creating any physical prototypes.

Thermal Comfort

Thermal Comfort

Thermal comfort in public and commercial spaces such as stadiums, theaters, schools, shopping centers, car parks or in private spaces like houses, apartment buildings or garages is an essential factor in ensuring good living conditions. SimScale offers a full simulation package to help you visualize airflow and heat transfer, test different air supply outlets and inlets, evaluate temperature gradients, air distribution or velocity plots to ensure thermal comfort for occupants in working and living environments.

"After studying our case, we can say that we are really impressed with the SimScale platform. Thanks to the platform’s ease of use, the professional support of SimScale engineers and the perfect communication with them, we were able to efficiently perform simulations and sort out our design problems. It’s hard to imagine how much physical prototyping time and measures we saved thanks to virtual prototyping."
