When I click on the discrete phase> summary is turned off. Do you think its better to use 2d axisymmetric condition by turning of gravity? Can I add gravitational force to particle later?

The rotational reynolds number is 180 =(omega^2*r/kin. viscosity) but not sure whether its laminar or turbulent. 

Can my simulation give the data of deposition percentage of particle after 4/5/6 hours of rotation?

For the rotation, should I apply rotational motion to  absolute or relative to adjacent cell zone? 

What is the rotation axis origin? Is is the coordinates of center of my cylinder?
