I´m rocky in comsol and im trying to use the rotating machine module, I did the baffled mixer turorial , and in my understanding here the fluid is rotating and the impeller is holded. Now im trying to do it in the inverse mode, the impeller is rotating and the the fluid receiving the moment.
My reactor is a cylinder with a small impeller. I have some questions: what part of my geometry must be selected in the rotating domain section: the vessel or the impeller? is necessary to add rotating walls? I tried all the possible configurations in these task but I cant get good results, seems like the impeller is not comunicating the moment flow to the fluid. Inside the veseel there are water.
I attached images of geometry and results.
thanks for your help

Were you able to solve your problem? I am working with very similar geometry and having the same issues
