Good day,
I try to simulate a waveflume using a dynamic mesh.
In this case i try with dynamicinkjetFvmesh, but when i run the model the mesh is good (moving) but the water does not simulate the paddle behavior(does not move).
My library is interDyFoam

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

There can be numerous sources of the behaviour you're describing (my first blind guess would be alpha boundary conditions). It would be helpful to know a bit more about your case (pictures showing how the mesh looks like and how the water actually behaves, boundary condition files, etc.).

All the best,

A
