Simulation of rotating machinery is crucial for understanding aerodynamic performance and efficiency. In this project, a propeller rotation was modeled in OpenFOAM using the Arbitrary Mesh Interface (AMI) approach. The AMI technique enables accurate simulation of relative motion between rotating and stationary domains, making it well-suited for propeller flow analysis. The study focuses on capturing the flow field around the propeller and evaluating its aerodynamic characteristics.Â
