Overset Region Disappears When Simulation Commences

jswift · January 31, 2022, 16:27

Hello,

I am setting up a rotating wheel simulation, where the tyre has rotating boundary conditions and the inner rim/spoke rotates within the tyre using an overset mesh.

I am finding that as soon as the simulation starts, the pink mesh disappears from the mesh scene, and only a rough shape of the cells can be seen rotating (using the XY plane). The rotation is obvious from the movement of cells against the plane but it is strange how the pink spoke mesh disappears.

Is this normal? Please see link below.
