We investigate, by means of 3D MHD simulations, the interaction of twisted coronal magnetic loops. The simulation is initialized with one or two dipoles anchored in the photosphere. A kinematic rotational motion is applied to the central parts of the dipolar regions at the photosphere so that a flux tube within each dipole becomes twisted. Simulations are performed for a single and for twin dipole flux tubes. We compare our results with Ozaki & Sato (1997). We find that the boundary conditions, in particular the closed upper boundary, are critical to obtaining the very high twist values seen by Ozaki & Sato (1997).
