<div><p>It is not clear from images. If it is completely closed chamber then you can use ‘Combine’ operation instead of volume extract. <\/p><p> <\/p><p>You can find general procedure for fluid volume extraction in following video.<br>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Jp8btI0PCyU<\/a> <\/p><p> <\/p><p>One of the main reasons in failure is geometry errors. Please check geometry in SpaceClaim. Select geometry in structure tree –> Use right click –> Select Check Geometry. The geometry should be error free to proceed. If geometry has any errors, please modify\/recreate geometry at those places.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Another reason is having some tangential contacts at some circular surfaces. Please make sure that bodies are intersecting instead of just touching each other.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Sometimes bodies are in contact only at some edges. At this point volume extraction may fail. In this case as well please make sure that bodies are intersecting each other.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>During volume extraction some boolean operations are done in the background. If those boolean operations fail then volume extraction fails. In this case please check if you can use “Combine” command to “Merge” all solid volumes one by one. <\/p><\/div><div> <\/div><div>You can check following videos on fluid volume extraction. <\/div><div>ANSYS Icepak: Extracting Fluid Volume of a Cold Plate – YouTube<\/a><\/div><div class=”_EId_OWALinkPreview _EReadonly_1 _EType_OWALinkPreview _Entity”><div id=”LPBorder_BVTaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cueW91dHViZS5jb20vd2F0Y2g:dj1KcDhidEkwUEN5VQ..” class=”LPBorder123315″><table id=”LPContainer123315″ border=”1″><tbody><tr><td><div id=”LPImageContainer123315″>\"\"<\/a><div id=”LPPlayButton123315″ class=”_3gUGVMbktPESQaYUneAb_h”>\ue768<\/em><\/div><div id=”LPPlayButton123315″ class=”_3gUGVMbktPESQaYUneAb_h”>\ue768<\/em><\/div><\/div><\/td><td><div id=”LPTitle123315″>ANSYS Icepak: Extracting Fluid Volume of a Cold Plate<\/a><\/div><div id=”LPDescription123315″>This video shows how to extract fluid volume of a cold plate in ANSYS SpaceClaim.
