Re: [TRNSYS-users] generating wind pressure coefficients



I would also love to know. I've been pushing for DesignBuilder to incorporate this into their external CFD Model so I can transfer the boundary conditions easily to e+. I've been waiting 7 years at least. Till now, I've been using the algorithm in e+ AFN modules, but it's not ideal. I have to manually tweak for courtyards, and so on.

Colleagues,

  Does anyone have any suggestions for tools to help with generating wind pressure coefficient values for buildings? I used to use CpGenerator and was very happy with its results. Sadly, it is no longer available. CPCALC is a little rough around the edges and I do not have project time or budget to get Cp values by testing. I imagine that the values can be generated by CFD analysis but I have no direct experience in that regard. I am interested to know whether people have found cost effective ways of generating Cp values.

I hope everyone is staying healthy!

David
