Hi! I did fix the dimensions and now the path lines looks better. Although laminar flow model was used, there seems to be some eddy, when looking at the velocity profile. Does that mean the flow is not laminar, although Reynolds number is small around 500? Should I have used a turbulent model? If it’s not an eddy, what is it? 

Thank you!
