I'm new to this and idk what I'm doing wrong

So essentially, I have a hollowed out blade and I want porous medium inside it. I managed to do it, but when I try to solve for airflow through the porous medium and over the blade’s surfaces, it throws this error:

“Multiple bodies with material assignments were detected. Because this is a single region simulation, only a single body may be assigned a material. Please review your material assignments and leave only the flow volume with a material.”

Hi @vijayarvindr, thanks for posting on the forum and welcome to the SimScale Community :handshake:

Usually when this issue happens there is more than one solid body in the domain for a single region analysis type (such as incompressible). Make sure you delete all the solids apart from the Flow region/advanced concepts. Maybe this tutorial is helpful in ilustrating the workflow:
