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.

Hi Rob,

Thanks for getting back to me!

I am using 2D analysis and using the inner circle diameter as my reference length so that it is independent of the angle. This is fairly well established in literature for this research so I don't think this is the issue. I conducted a grid sensitivity study so I think that the mesh is fine enough. I will look into the problem area with velocity vectors - any hints on what i should be looking out for?

For changing the angles I am altering the inlet velocity vector components so that I do not have to remesh etc. each time.
