We’re putting the final touches on our new badges platform. Badge issuance remains temporarily paused, but all completions are being recorded and will be fulfilled once the platform is live. Thank you for your patience.

Hello, 

You can find an example here to get you started  Ansys Fluent: Using the Six Degrees of Freedom (Six DOF) Solver - YouTube

For Dynamic Meshing, you can have any combination of prescribed motion in 3D or 2D and/or 6DOF.

Here, it seems to be that all motion is parallel with XZ plane:

  • the direction of the rotation of the main disk is along the Y-axis;
  • the direction of the rotation of the 2nd disk is along the Y-axis, with oscillation parallel to XZ plane;
  • the oscillating motion of the arm is parallel to XZ plane.

Your would need 3 different DEFINE_CG_MOTION UDFs to characterize each of these movements. 2.6. Dynamic Mesh DEFINE Macros (ansys.com)
