  Hello Are the inlet and outlet boundaries specified on a solid object? Also, are these external boundaries for your computational domain?

  You're in Workbench Meshing, and the surfaces look OK. However, you also have four parts, is that correct?

  The top image is from Fluent the bottom is from Meshing, Yes I think so. I was advised to manually input my contact regions to solve my mesh interfacing issues.

  Yellow in Fluent implies an interface zone. Please post the boundary condition & cell zone list from Fluent so we can see what's going on.

  That's odd, the surface labels should pass to Fluent. If you click on the inlet label in meshing how many faces are in the zone?

  And no wall-surroundings. If you click on File - Export what do you see when you read that mesh into Fluent standalone mode (instructions at the top of the Fluids section on how to do that).

  Try using 127.0.0.1 as the IP and check the parallel interconnect options. There are threads in the Installation part so please check there.
