Zero radial coordinates found on non-axis face in boundary OUTLET

Hi!
I am dealing with an axisymetric turbulent jet. The problem is that when i try to initialize solution i get this message: Zero radial coordinates found on non-axis face in boundary OUTLET. I can't understand whats the problem, so if anyone can help me find a solution it would be great!
Thnx!

Hi Vassilis,

If you want to set up an axisymmetric model,

1. Converting plane(for convert 3D to 2D operation) have to be XY plane, that is, 3D mesh compress through the Z axis.

2. You have to choose correct axis for given geometry, i think your problem is here (setup boundary type).
