Interface between Rotatory Domain and St. Domain

jordibartrons · October 13, 2011, 16:40

Hi every one,

I'm trying to simulate a rotating propeller and I put together in CFXPre a cilynder (stationary domain) and a small cylinder wihich surrounds the propeller ( rotationary domain). The problem is when I'm setting the frozen rotor interface there is a problem with the pitch angle, it says that is greater than 360. I don't understand what is this.

Anyone can help?

Thanks

Do you have any geometry (blades, splitters etc) in the outer stationary cilinder?

No, it's an open water domain
