News and stories about ArchiWind

New features, research studies and news from ArchiWind.

Solar sites have hills. Most wind models pretend they don't.

Ask how the wind loads were derived on your last solar project and the answer is usually code values and a terrain category. Flat ground, adjusted. Real sites aren't. NablaFlow's new validation report tests ArchiWind against Askervein Hill and Bolund, two of the most demanding full-scale terrain benchmarks in wind engineering, with predictions falling inside experimental uncertainty at every Bolund measurement point.
