Simple Volume of negative space/ volume of the fluid in a pipe
Simple Volume of negative space/ volume of the fluid in a pipe
(OP)
Do I have to use FloXpress Analysis wizard for the Subject matter? COSMOS? Or is it much simpler than all that?

Or you could subtract a copy of the part from a non-hollow solid with the same exterior geometry, yielding a new solid with the volume of the original object's interior.
Or... I think there are some plastic- molding oriented commands that can generate or report internal volumes.

(I don't know surfaces very well.)

All solids in SolidWorks are knit together from surfaces. A solid has two properties that set it aside from surfaces. The surfaces in a solid form a "water tight" volume and all surface normals point out from the inside of the volume.
The knit command has an option to form a solid if the surfaces included in the selection list comprise an enclosed, "water tight" volume.
