Good Day everyone,

I am running open water test on my propeller but unfortunately my result of thrust coefficient and torque coefficient show increasing graphs. I have been working on the directions of torque and thrust but it doesn't help. Experts can give some suggestions which part to work on?

My propeller:
negative RPM with axis (1,0,0)
negative inlet velocity
zero outlet pressure
thrust direction (-1,0,0)
torque direction (1,0,0)

At first I was running using the setting exactly the same as in user guide except the way I created the interface but my result was wrong too. I got my torque and thrust coefficient as decreasing graph but negative value. I was trying to imitate or follow all the setting as in example so I have no idea which part had gone wrong.
