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.

Reverse flow means you have material entering the domain at an outlet, or leaving at an inlet. Strictly speaking it's not a problem, but if you don't know what it's happening, or you have incorrect boundary values set it can influence the result to give a physically incorrect result: Fluent may converge as the solution is correct for the values set. 

What does the post processing tell you about the flow field?
