      Hi

      Is there any workaround to avoid meshing inside the inner volume of any body without doing a Boolean for ansys meshing

      If you dont want to mesh anybody, you can just right click on it and suppress.

      Hi thanks for the reply
      I am doing an external aerodynamics simulation over an UAV. I have separate bodies named as wing, fuselage etc... in my geometry, so to avoid my mesh inside the aircraft body I am doing a Boolean operation but the problem is if I do a Boolean it makes all my bodies in my geometry named above are merged into one body but I need those bodies to be present so that i can only mesh a particular body one by one for example meshing only wing body and suppressing other bodies. The reason I need these separate bodies is because I can see no of elements only on particular bodies for example only on wing but boolean is making everything as a one body
