HELP,how to define the periodic boudary conditions using the icem mesh?

dada1204 · February 24, 2011, 04:55

I have a problem with the mesh created in the ICEM CFD ,which was read into the fluent software.I cannot dedine the rotationary periodic boundary conditions.
grid/modify-zones/make-periodic
periodic zone [()] 7
shadow zone[()] 8
rotational periodic?(if no,translational) [yes] yes
create periodic zones? [yes] yes

zone7: matched 0 out of 2318 faces
zone8: matched 0 out of 2318 faces
error:failed to make zones periodic
error object:#f

Wish someone can help me,thank you.
