Massive main sequence stars are fast rotators. Stellar rotation affects massive stellar rotation due to rotationally induced mixing processes, the increase of mass loss rates, etc. and also affects the circumstellar medium due to their interaction with the stellar wind. The parameters of stellar winds depends on stellar parameters so the wind parameters change as the star evolves, coupling the evolution of circumstellar medium to the star itself. In this work we used a stellar code to build models of two massive stars (30 and 40 Msolar) and we used their wind parameters to simulate the hydrodynamics of their surrounding gas with the ZEUS-3D code in order to explore the effects of stellar rotation in the pre-supernova environments.
