We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

It is indeed quite complicated, so thank you very much for taking the time to answer every time! 😊

What I’m simulating is actually quite simple to describe: two cylinders rotating inside a housing filled with oil and air. I’ve also included bearings and a dynamic sealing in the setup.

In the colder areas, I’m using a conformal mesh. I’ve already checked all the boundary conditions, and none of them show negative temperatures or anything unusual.

I’m simulating with a constant oil density of 1060 kg/m³, which is quite high. For the dynamic viscosity, I’ve defined a temperature-dependent expression (e.g., 0.0848 kg/m·s at 15 °C). This property is already implemented as an expression. I’ve left the air properties at their default values.

Is there any other information I should provide to make my setup clearer?
