Flow direction has to be in the Z direction (I think)

Hello everyone, i am new to SU2 and trying to test out turbomachinery capabilities of SU2 by running NASA's rotor67 case in 3D.
I am using my own mesh without a tip gap for simplicity. So far the results I am getting are not correct. I am defining relative total temperature and pressure BC at inlet but simulation keeps calculating higher temperatures and pressures than the total inlet conditions. The locations it keeps doing this are mostly at leading and trailing edges. I've used finer meshes, different topologies, etc but couldnt figure out why this keeps happening and nothing I did solved the problem. Also, I am using Giles BC at the outlet with radial equilibrium. The pressure defined at the Giles BC is static pressure at the hub at the outlet.
I've also tested the same mesh with same BCs in CFX and it didnt show any behavior like SU2 and computed a sensible solution. Thus, I think the mesh I am using is most likely fine.
I am sharing my cfg file as well. I will be very glad to hear out any solution idea or anyone that encountered the same issue, calculating higher values than the defined total BC values, from the community.

Hello,
Were you able to get your case to run? I think the flow direction has to be in the Z direction. When the flow direction is in the x direction it gives the wrong number of blade count. When I changed the flow direction to the z direction it gives the correct number of blades. That is one thing I noticed from your card.
One other thing, were you able to scale up the number of processors used in calculating the case? I can only get it to scale up to 6 processors.
Thanks
