2d turbulent flow simulation in ladle

Hi

im trying to do a 2 dimensional turbulent flow simulation of liquid steel drainage in ladle (size:2.7 m, 1.3 m) during casting. i set the upper wall as an inlet and the nozzle as an outlet. i set the velocity of inlet and outlet to zero. i used moving mesh in turbulent flow to show the drainage of the ladle but i didnt get any result, only the upper wall is moving, there isnt any change in velocity which shows a flow pattern in the ladle, there is no drainage of steel. i defined a velocity for inlet and outlet but i encountered some error. i used timedependent in my simulation. in the moving mesh i put :
prescribed mesh velocity: upper wall
free deformation:whole shape

I couldnt attached my simulation file, your website shows a file size error, if it is possible i can send by email to you.


would you please guide me as soon as possible?



Thanks
