Particle tracking in unsteady rotating meshes?
 

Hi you all. I'm no star-cd user (yet?) but have a question regarding it's capabilities: Can STAR do particle tracking in an unsteady simulation (rotating equipment)?

yup. :)

How to do that? Once I faced similar problem in STAR-CD. I was simulating centrifugal pump (rotating/sliding mesh) with insertion of droplets in it. But droplets were not going outside the attach BC, and they were getting reflected from this BC very strangely. Can anybody can help in this...... Thanks

I believe the problem you observed was a bug and should have been fixed long time ago - say v3150 should work for the situation.
