What best choice for Boolean to this geometry

      Hello I am trying to creat the below geometry in desgin Modeler in which the lower rectangle represent new material set as PCM and the upper sktech is another fluid (air). I used Boolean unite to merge the two sketches but when I used it  I found that only 1 part body (just the PCM) appeared while the air part disappeared? what I need to do to keep both sketches exist? 


       



      Thanks to answer

      I would simply not use the boolean operation. It should only be used if the material is same.


      If you want to share the nodes at the interface just select both surface bodies and put them in a single multibody part (by right-clicking form a new part).

      Dear Aniket,


      So you mean no need to use Boolean in my geometry which has two distinct materials and I need just to set the two sketches in one new part?

      That is correct.
