Ansys Fluent Meshing and analysis

I am having a problem in the analysis of a pipe with an impeller. I have designed a quarter pipe and I have divided the quarter pipe into 5 bodies for good meshing. Now I need to develop a flow with the translational periodic condition by applying a pressure gradient. But when I am applying periodic condition in fluent, it shows some errors. I am not able to select multi-face of inlet together as one periodic face. I have tried to fuse these bodies together in fluent but wasn't successful.

The first checks for a periodic boundary condition is to make sure both the faces match each other. Otherwise fluent is unable to assign it as an infinitely long pipe. A fan in the middle of the pipe would also make this exercise futile!

You are better of asking this at the ANSYS Student Community Forum.

For your issue, ensure that all your bodies are in a multi-body part. Have all the upstream faces in a single name selection and all downstream faces in a single name selection.
