WindSim 4.9.2 Debuts at EWEC 2010
WindSim 4.9.2 will debut in Europe at EWEC 2010 with encores in America at WINDPOWER 2010 and in China at WPA 2010.
We're proud to showcase a long list of innovative new features, functionality, and extensions scheduled for our upcoming 4.9.2 version.
You'll see simple changes in the GUI—for an even smoother and richer user experience—to major upgrades in performance and physical modeling.
We listen to our customers and we deliver. Read on for the short list.
REMOTE SENSING CORRECTION TOOL
Remote sensing techniques based on SODAR and LIDAR are gaining more traction in the wind sector than ever before. Why? Because remote sensing can sample data over a large area plus it can measure vertical profiles at the turbine locations. But, using these measurements can pose some challenges.
Now, you can meet those challenges with WindSim. READ MORE »

The figure above shows the correlation between measurements from a traditional mast and from measurements obtained with a LIDAR. The averaged relative error is reduced from 6.7% to 0.3% using the new WindSim Remote Sensing Correction Tool.
PARALLEL VERSION
Dramatically reduce the computing time for your simulations by using 100% of your available computer resources. READ MORE »
WAKE MODELING WITH ACTUATOR DISC
We're seeing lots of offshore activity. Large offshore wind farms need better models to address wake-wake interactions. READ MORE »
ENHANCED 3D VIEWER
Want the distribution of the wind speed and turbulence over the swept turbine area? You got it. READ MORE »
TERRAIN EDITOR
Make your own roughness datasets and use high resolution images from many sources including Google Earth, Bing Maps, and others. READ MORE »
