Multiple Rotating Reference frame (MRF) This is done by creating three domains. 1 stationary, in front of the propeller 2. rotating, containing the blades, 3.stationary behind the propeller Single Rotating Reference Frame (SRF) Propeller is stationary and the flow rotates around it (domain is rotating) I would like to know in which method one is correct method and which method is easy to carry out CFD analysis.
