Validating CFD simulations with experimental data enhances accuracy by comparing simulation outcomes with real-world conditions. This process identifies discrepancies, allowing adjustments to enhance model reliability. Ultimately, it builds confidence in the simulation's ability to predict wind load scenarios.
Modeling a Kármán vortex street in RWIND
In RFEM 6 it is possible to save selected objects (as well as whole structures) as blocks and reuse them in other models. Three types of blocks can be distinguished: non-parameterized, parameterized, and dynamic blocks (via JavaScript). This article will focus on the first block type (non-parameterized).
This article describes how to create a user-defined antenna bracket to be used in RF-/TOWER Equipment.

After generating the effective lengths, the results are displayed in clearly arranged tables. You can modify the effective lengths manually there.
The Export function transfers the effective lengths to the RF-/TOWER Design add-on module for further calculation. The complete module data are part of the RFEM/RSTAB printout report. The report contents and the extent of the results can be selected specifically for the individual designs.
In the Details dialog box, you can specify nodal restraints of the individual bracing types. For example, intersection points of horizontal and vertical bracings can be defined as being kept perpendicular to the bracing plane.
You can specify the tower type, the number of each type of installed equipment, and the allocated members in the individual categories under General Data. The members of lattice towers previously defined in the RF-/TOWER Structure and/or RF-/TOWER Equipment add-on modules are allocated automatically.
Finally, it is possible to export the generated model to RFEM/RSTAB with a single mouse click.
The complete module data are part of the RFEM/RSTAB printout report. The report contents and the extent of the results can be selected specifically for the individual designs.
