Cutter Bodies

The goal of this part is to explore the functionality of cutter bodies in Ansys Discovery Explore-Mode. Cutter bodies enable the generation of bulk fluid volumes and the designation of overlapping solid bodies or dirty CAD, as cutters, without the need for traditional Boolean operation. This feature streamlines the process, allowing users to create simplified fluid volumes and have the solver/mesher deal with Boolean operations, eliminating the necessity for extensive geometry preparation. The tutorial demonstrates the application of cutter bodies for internal parts within a car cabin model.
