WindStation is a technical software for simulating wind over complex topography. Using a Navier-Stokes solver with k-e turbulence modeling, it processes meteorological data and terrain elevation to generate detailed vector displays and shaded contours.
  • Pros

    • Uses Navier-Stokes solver for wind simulation over complex topography
    • Incorporates k-e turbulence model with integrated wall functions
    • Supports meteorological station readings and boundary layer profiles
    • Visualizes results using vector displays and shaded contours
    • Provides data export functionality in text file formats
  • Cons

    • Requires terrain elevation in Ascii Arcview file format
    • Visual post-processing limited to vector and shaded contour displays
    • Export functionality is restricted to text file outputs
