what is the surface roughness effect on DPM Wall Normal Pressure?

      Hello there. I have a nanoparticle injection to water flow colliding a wall with 2micron roughness. I wonder if the surface roughness has an effect on "DPM Wall Normal Pressure" ?

      in fact I want to know if the calculated Normal Pressure is normal to the wall or to the wall roughness. I will appreciate it if anyone can help. I couldn't find the answer in Ansys theory guide.

      It'll probably be normal to the wall facet. Roughness is typically used for turbulence.
