Four different grid sizes are studied in accordance with the Grid Convergence Index (GCI) to investigate mesh independency of the solution. Results of several turbulence models were also examined to find out the Shear Stress Transport(SST)modelinordertotakeintoaccounttheturbulenceintheflow.Severalturbulence modelswerealsoexaminedtogetherwithwallfunctionsothattheturbulenceintheflowcouldbe takenintoconsideration.mixingplaneinterfaceplanewasusedtopassthedisturbanceof rotarydomaintostationarydomain.theobtainedresultsshowthathighresolutionadvection scheme,mixingplanetomodeltherotor-statorinteractiontogetherwithturbulenceintensityof I=6% at the inlet, best matches with the experimental results.
