Fiera Milano: 3D model and wind simulation Courtesy of Studio Marzullo, Rome Safely abandon Codes oversimplifications Civil engineering structural Codes often stem from oversimplified structures. In contrast, VENTO AEC virtual wind tunnel allows you to simulate wind loads on realistic geometries, no matter their complexity. Moreover, Codes lack the ability to provide a detailed 3D representation of the surrounding urban context, which may radically alter the wind flow and impact bulding forces. According to the Euro Code, when dealing with shapes not accounted for, wind tunnel testing or CFD simulation can be utilized instead.

Break limits and costs of Wind Tunnel testing Wind Tunnel tests are necessarily carried out at a Reynolds number 2 or 3 orders of magnitude smaller than the actual one, providing results at only a limited number of measurement points. With much lower execution times and costs, VENTO AEC virtual wind tunnel allows you to test your geometry in 1:1 scale at the real Reynolds number in millions of locations. Moreover, nowadays CFD results are considered as reliable as the Wind tunnel measurements, particularly by Formula 1 engineers – the most demanding community of CFD users.

Example: Meazza Stadium in Milan Only Vento unlocks the full power of CFD Our proprietary Non-Conformal Grid technology (NCG) – also known as Immersed Boundary technique – efficiently handles the numerous intricate geometrical details within the 3D model. This approach ensures precise simulations without the need for simplifications or extensive mesh enlargement, which can be costly and impractical. With VENTO AEC, you can now conduct early-stage CFD design using realistic 3D geometrical models at unparalleled speeds, accurately representing “what you see is what you test” Only Vento unlocks the full power of CFD Example: Meazza Stadium in Milan Our proprietary Non-Conformal Grid technology (NCG) – also known as Immersed Boundary technique – efficiently handles the numerous intricate geometrical details within the 3D model.
