I don't remember discussing circumferential displacement, but yes I think rotational velocity is better. Otherwise the IR will move away and lose contact with the ball.

And yes apologies for changing my advice on fluent walls, but I realised a better workflow now.

On mesh quality I don't mean better mesh quality from meshing - the mesh changes when it deforms. I mean mesh quality after and during deformation.

As for how to create videos of mesh deforming I cannot go into such detail over this forum. This forum is not for training, neither even is technical support we provide commercial customers. Please send a screenshot of the mesh deforming, or create an animation in Fluent and send to me. All of this is documented in Ansys help.
