Hi

A jet produced from tip of stirrer hitting wall, flow is then directed upwards towards the top surface of the tank before returning to the stirrer forming a recirculating pattern. 

I am modelling a flat-liquid surface to check if my methodology is correct before adding the tracer to a VOF simulation with vortex.

Also regarding setting the tracer properties the same as water, do I also need to define the molecular weight of tracer as the same as water or do I use the actual molecular weight of tracer as I took it as the molecular weight of tracer used in the experiment?
