Name Name of the wind tube
Top Top altitude of the tube, in meters.
Base Bottom altitude of the tube, in meters.
Size Radius of the tube, in kilometers.
Vertical Set here the height of a desired wind cell.
The number of slices is automatically computed according to height of the type.
Force Wind force value at base . The higher the value, the longer the arrow.
Azimuth Wind azimuth value in degrees at base
The wind force arrow shows the azimuth, up for north, right for east, and down for south.
Temperature Mean temperature at base of the tube.
Temperature will be automatically adjusted according to altitude gain (6 degrees loss per 1000 m)
Pressure Mean pressure at base of the area.
Pressure will be automatically adjusted according to altitude according to the following formula: p(z) = 1013.25 * (1-(0.0065*z/288.15)) ^ 5.255
Resample Free the wind tube from all cells and recreate them according to data in Settings box and sampling values.
Cells will also get the Force , Azim , Temp and Press values.
Temperature and Pressure will be modified according to altitude.
Edit Cells
Hide If checked, the wind tube will not be displayed on the terrain, even if selected.
Wind tubes are always displayed when Winds layer is selected.
Hide at Runtime If checked, the tube and content will not be displayed on the simulation engine if OpenGL viewer (or equivalent) is selected.
Use this option when Hide in Map (10) is not checked. The tube will be visible on the GUI map (for info) but not on the runtime window (for performances or other reasons).
Locked If locked, the tube cannot be displaced with the mouse
