Simulate vegetation in MacroFlo

Post by ahcag »

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering if it is possible to simulate vegetation efect on winds, like trees blocking wind?

thanks.

Hi,

If you were physically modelling these then you would have to represent them as a room to have any impact but usually the MacroFlo Opening Types Exposure Type input is enough to represent the effects of the opening position and surrounding elements.
