  1. Boundary Conditions
    1. Inlet
      1. Velocity magnitude: 12m/s
    2. Inlet-Top
      1. Component (X,Y,Z): (0,0,-12m/s)
    3. Blade
      1. Default, wall
    4. Periodic 1 and Periodic 2
      1. Change to Interface
  2. Mesh Interface
    1. Click Create/edit
      1. Name the mesh interface periodic
      2. Enable Periodic Boundary Condition
      3. Enable matching
      4. Type is Rotational
      5. Offset angle is 120 degrees
      6. Choose the interface zones to be periodic 1 and periodic 2

Note

The order in which the interface zones matters because of how the offset is computed.

Make the first interface zone periodic 1 and second interface zone periodic 2.

Otherwise, you may get the error: Cannot intersect two interfaces.
