thank for your reply.<br>

My mesh moves if I write the mesh in a rea file. If I use the mesh generated from exo2nek script, the mesh does not move.<br>

>> The mesh I am using was generated in Cubit and then converted to the Nek5000 re2 format using the exo2nek script. I call the function ‘gen_rea’ to make Nek5000 write the mesh in a rea file. My mesh has a moving boundary condition, and the mesh motion is computed by the ALE solver. I then do the following:<br>
