However, I am getting wrong results compared to the experimental ones.&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While checking the boundary conditions, I realized that when I created the interface between the &#8220;stationary&#8221; and &#8220;rotating&#8221; domains, 2 non-overlapping surfaces are created in the boundary conditions and are set as &#8220;walls&#8221;. I don&#8217;t know if this is what is causing the problem, does anyone have any idea?&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Attached is a screenshot showing the surfaces created as walls in the boundary conditions. (I can&#8217;t change them into interface).&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thank you so much for your help!&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/09\/23-09-2024-1727101087-Screenshot 2024-09-23 171745.png\" alt=\"\" \/>&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-383760","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["459442","199"],"_bbp_author_ip":["78.108.167.75"],"_btv_view_count":["195"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["383760"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["199","459442"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["383764"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["383764"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-09-23 14:24:14"]},"test":"mohalinasre2001gmail-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/383760","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/383760\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=383760"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
