Hi all. New to SimScale. I am working on a company project and am trying to run a thermal analysis simulation with forced induction cooling. I have a perfectly symmetrical model with the rear fan opening and two openings at the front as you will see in the attached pictures so that the forced air wi…

Hello jconwell, in addition to what matt already mentioned. I think I found the gap. There is a small slot between the front cover and the top cover. as you can see here: [image] Further, I want to point out that you might want to do some further Geometry simplifications: For example, you coul…

Hi there, and thanks for using the forum! Please always include the link to your project so we can have a look at it and provide the best help.

Hi @jconwell , Welcome to SimScale and thanks for reaching out! I had a look at your project. It is likely there’s a hole somewhere in your assembly and that’s why SimScale is saying an infinite flow region would be created. I tried to extract the flow volume manually, but the Boolean-cut operation …

Great find @SBlock , I was also able to find via SimScale’s CAD Mode Gap detection tool. [gap detection] Thanks, Matt
