I am trying to model a centrifugal pump using a moving wall for the rotor. The moving wall is rotating at 1400 RPM. I have defined inlet using a mass flow BC and the outlet is defined as outflow. I am using the default solution methods and my solution is converging. But I get a higher pressure at the inlet and I cannot figure out why. Any suggestions please?
