Cosmos Floworks fluid subdomain

Cosmos Floworks fluid subdomain

Cosmos Floworks fluid subdomain

(OP)
Hi,

I'm having a problem with a floworks analysis of airflow in a sealed cabinet. I have two inlets and one outlet, all have lids and boundary conditions set. When I use the geometry checker before defining the simulation I have a fluid volume but after entering details in the project configuration wizard and then recheck the geometry I have no fluid volume even though the geometry has not changed.

The simulation has run in previous configurations when I solved the sealing problem. Initially I was getting an error message that any of the surfaces inside cabinet were not in contact with the fluid. That was resolved by altering the geometry to get a better seal.

I have not altered the external seals but have altered some of the internal geometry and the program is now not recognising the fluid subdomain.

Has anyone else encountered similar problems, or has anyone any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Ben
