Wind Load on Structure

I have a fairly simple structure to model in a significant wind storm. I created a simple donut strucutre in AutoCAD 2015 in metres and it comes into Simulation in mm. I have redrawn the structure 1000 times as big in AutoCAD and it is still in mm size. How do you fix the units between the two programs?

 

Also do you have a fairly simple example of setting up a wind study on a small structure, I have spent three days working through the tutorials and examples, but the stuff is either a nice TV show or more mechanical in nature?

You can simply change the units in CFD by right clicking on Geomety in the model tree.

 

I would just try the 'car' tutorial model, as it is the same process, a simple wind tunnel.

 

Thanks,

Jon
