Calculation with wheel spin

  Hi all. I am designing a spinning centrifugal wheel, inside a pipe, which is rotated by fluid flow. I use 6 DOP to spin the wheel.
  
  I divided the fluid model into 4 parts and now it doesn’t count, there seems to be no connection between the parts of the water:
  Need to use a mesh link between parts?

  Hello,
  please double check if the boundaries between your different parts are set as type Wall. If so, then yes, you need to create Mesh interfaces between them to allow for Internal type boundaries between them.

    Yes, yes, sorry. I had to add mesh interfaces.
