Define Rotational Periodic Conditions
Use the Periodic: Rotation tool to define periodic boundaries with rotational periodicity. Rotational periodic boundary conditions specify that the values of all variables on surface pairs are equal.

All of the problems in fluid dynamics are governed by the same standard conservation equations. What makes the solution of each problem unique is the set of boundary conditions.
Use the Default Wall tool to edit the default properties of unassigned wall surfaces. If you later assigns properties to a surface, it will be removed from the default domain.
Use the Profiled tool to apply boundary conditions on surfaces where the flow enters the domain.
Use the Constant tool to define an opening surface with a constant velocity.
Use the Pressure tools to enforce pressure on the nodes of a surface
Use the Far Field tool to define surfaces far away from the source of disturbance.
Use the Atmospheric tool to define atmospheric boundary layers at an inlet.
Use the Outlet tool define boundary conditions on surfaces where flow is exiting the domain.
Use the No Slip tool to define physical walls in the simulation domain.
Use the Baffles tool to define baffle surfaces.
Use the Moving tool to define a surface moving at a certain velocity. This condition then imposes that velocity to the fluid.
Use the Slip tool to define wall surfaces which have zero shear stress and through which there is no normal velocity.
Use the Symmetry tool to define a surface as a symmetry plane.
Use the Periodic tool to define boundaries with translational, rotational, and streamwise periodicity. With a periodic condition, you can represent a larger periodic model by applying settings to just a section.
Use the Periodic: Translation tool to define periodic boundaries with translational periodicity. Translational periodic boundary conditions specify that the values of all variables on surface pairs are equal.
Use the Periodic: Rotation tool to define periodic boundaries with rotational periodicity. Rotational periodic boundary conditions specify that the values of all variables on surface pairs are equal.
Use the Periodic: Streamwise tool to define periodic boundaries with translational periodicity and an offset in variables. Streamwise periodic boundary conditions specify that the values of the second surface set are equal to those of the first surface set plus a constant value or a ratio.
Define radiation conditions and create emissivity models.
Define direct, derived, and constrained mesh motion.
Generate surface/volume mesh by defining mesh controls, or interactively create and edit 2D surface mesh.
Define output conditions, run the simulation, and view the results.
Use the Template Manager to define rule-based logic for groups, geometric operations, and setup and automate simulation processes.
Set up the simulation model, materials, domains, and boundaries.
Define surface boundary conditions.
Use the Periodic tool to define boundaries with translational, rotational, and streamwise periodicity. With a periodic condition, you can represent a larger periodic model by applying settings to just a section.

Use the Periodic: Rotation tool to define periodic boundaries with rotational periodicity. Rotational periodic boundary conditions specify that the values of all variables on surface pairs are equal.
If any of the source surfaces don't have a compatible target surface, the tool will not allow you to select any target surfaces.
This allows you to continue creating instances and helps you visualize and edit instances with the legend.
