Hello Ayuk,

I can give you some suggestion to investigate this issue:

  1. Take a look at the material interactions parameters, specifically those related to friction between the mill and particles. Make sure the values align with the actual physical properties of the materials involved.
  2. In the output frequencies, review the simulation time to ensure that the time step is sufficiently small to accurately capture the dynamics of the system.
  3. Double-check the parameters linked to the rotor’s rotation to confirm that the rotation axis, speed, and direction are accurately defined to ensure optimal performance.
  4. Verify the gravity settings to confirm if it aligns with the correct axis direction.

I recommend exploring additional information in the User Manual available on Rocky User Manual (ansys.com)

Best regards,
