Rotating/ Moving body

Hello,

I am new in using Comsol. I want to simulate a rigid torus rotated with an angular acceleration and filled with incompressible fluid. I need to get flow rate of the inertially induced fluid flow inside the torus. Could you please tell me is there any option to make the torus itself rotate with an acceleration?

Check CFD Module --> Single-Phase Tutorials --> rotating disk

Acceleration can be realized with an analytical function under Definitions.
