Fan flow simulation

      Hi,

      I have a doubt about pressure results in a simulation with two fans in ansys discovery. Fans have been set with predefined fan library (manufacturer data - icepack)

      After running the simulation, results show negative values for pressure drop, both static and total.

      Thus, having a negative static pressure drop does not match with the fan curve, as the minimum value is zero. Additionally, having a negative total pressure drop has no sense for this system (as far as I undersand).

      Could you please help with this matter regarding the results I got and the proper way of evaluating fans in discovery?

      Add images to show the model.
