In Ansys Discovery, to maintain surfaces without automatically creating a solid when you have a group of closed surfaces, you can use the Fill tool. This tool allows you to create surfaces without selecting any edges, which means you can generate surfaces that do not form a closed volume and thus do not become a solid.Using the Fill Tool

Additionally, the Combine tool in Ansys Discovery can be used to merge surfaces with surfaces, which can be helpful if you are looking to combine multiple surface elements without forming a solid.
