Fluid Solid Interface + Cyclic Symmetry - 2 way FSI
 

Good afternoon!!

In recent times I have been doing a CFD simulation of a naval propeller using CFX with periodicity (cyclic symmetry). After validating my model, I started with a two way fluid structure simulation (CFX + Transient Structural + System Coupling). I'm having trouble using this cyclic symmetry and creating a fluid solid interface on the propeller blades. Reading the Ansys manual, I checked the incompatibility between booth. Any idea what I can do to maintain this periodicity and make the two way fluid structure interaction?

Thank you in advance,
