Wrong flow direction in setup

      Hello to everyone. Good afternoon from Switzerland...!

      I am a newcomer to ANSYS. I began working on a project in which I needed to simulate multiphase flow, but I decided to start with a single fluid flow, which is air.

      As steps, I drew it, then meshed it, and am now at the setup stage.

      In the setup, the input flow direction is now pointing in the wrong direction. I'm not sure how to move it in the right direction. I looked on the internet as well, but I didn't find a satisfactory response. It would be really appreciated if you could assist me with this.

      I've also attached some photographs of the setup. There is one slit section through which sample flow (inlet 2) arises. I've also attached some images of the setup. There is one slit section from which sample flow 2 (inlet 2) will originate.

      Check which surface is set in the solver, the arrows denote the general direction of flow, so inlets enter the domain and outlets exit. To add, there's something odd in the Fluent plot, the grey should be uniform rather than shaded, so check how many walls there are.
