  Hi am performing a VWAT analysis and I wanted to subtract my model from the enclosure but space claim comes up with an error stating that it could not subtract. If someone can please help me to fix up this it would be really great thanks in advance.

  What type are the VAWT bodies?
  
  Moving to geometry.

  make sure that you have a solid for subtraction.
  
  if you have solid, please check if it has any errors. you can check it by selecting in structure tree --> right click --> check geometry.
  
  Also you can try creating a enclosure manually and then use 'Combine' command for subtraction.
