Rotating A turbine Blade

It should rotate if you set it up correctly.

And why did you use the immersed solid approach? This case is clearly an application for rotating frames of reference - as I said in a previous post.

I don't know why i still get error in the solution. I set domain 1 as fluid. Domain 2 as solid domain. Then i set boundary for fluid, the inlet and outlet as usual. Then i set interface type, fluid solid. And i make the analysis to transient. Could it be that i was wrong at setting the interface ?
