Hello,

I'm really new in openFoam. I'm trying to simulate wind-flow around a 39-story building , I could run the windAroundBuildigs tutorial and to starting I just tried replacing the buildings.obj.gz file (inside ...buildings/constant/triSurface folder) for mytower.stl.zip and also for mytower.obj.zip.. But it didn't work. I also opened the buildings.obj file and y i noticed that mytower is 100 time bigger than the buildings from the tutorial. Could someone explain to me how can i change the BC to run the same tutorial with mytower model (real-scale)?
I would really appreciate your help.
