The “Wind Rose” wind definition type becomes available once the “Wind Simulation” add-on is activated. The wind rose allows you to define different wind profiles for various wind directions. For example, you can define direction-dependent wind velocities and incorporate them into the wind simulation.
In the wind simulation wizard, the wind rose can be assigned as an alternative to a single, direction-independent wind profile. A typical use case for the wind rose is when wind data is available from an expert report. Another application is the consideration of wind-shading effects on a building, such as those caused by neighboring buildings or the surrounding terrain.
