Default Rotate mesh for different wind directions

Hi All,

I'm trying to simulate wind flow for a group of buildings from different wind directions. At present, I have two meshed objects:

1. A cylindrical core which runs vertically through my domain so that it encompasses all the buildings in my geometry.

2. The remaining mesh for the rest of the enclosure.

I have created the grid in Fluent meshing, and am wondering if there is a way to ROTATE either piece (either in the meshing mode or solution mode) so that I can simulate different wind directions without having to re-mesh everything. If there is a way to do this, could someone please give me a quick rundown or direct me to the appropriate resource? Thanks!
