Filling Volume Error In Design Modeler

       Hello,

      I am encountering some challenges while attempting to simulate the flow of water within a pumping station, specifically focusing on the intake of seawater and analyzing the water flow patterns and velocity changes.

      When attempting to fill the station with a volume of water, I encountered the following errors:

      1. "Error: Operation would result in non-manifold bodies"

        • This error suggests that there may be issues with the geometry of the pumping station, potentially resulting in non-manifold bodies, which could interfere with the simulation process.
      2. "Error: No new fill volume was created from selected body sets"

        • This error indicates that despite attempting to fill the station with water, the simulation software was unable to create a new fill volume from the selected body sets, further complicating the simulation process.

      These errors are hindering my progress in accurately simulating the water flow within the pumping station. I believe resolving these issues is crucial to obtaining reliable simulation results and gaining insights into the fluid dynamics of the system.

      I would greatly appreciate any guidance or assistance you can provide in troubleshooting these errors and ensuring a successful simulation of the pumping station's water flow.

      Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to your prompt response.

      Best regards,

      Please check geometry in SpaceClaim. 
      Select geometry in structure tree --> Use right click --> Select Check Geometry. (Or Tools - Fault Detection in DM)
      The geometry should be error free to proceed. 
      If geometry has any errors, please modify/recreate geometry at those places. 

      Also please consider SpaceClaim for volume extraction. Please check following video.

      hello mr keyur, thank u for ur help i really appreciate it. i have another problem I am looking for a way to display depth-averaged quantities such as depth-averaged velocity in my simulation. i hope u can help me hot to display it bcus i couldn't find any really good informationa about it, thank u in advance.
