Trouble Defining Flow Volume

Project Support
1

i am trying to simulate air flow and ventilation inside an box containing electrical components with varying degrees of power dissipation which will produce heat. Right now i am having some issues defining the flow region of air inside the box. I can select a seed face and boundary as the tutorials show but i receive errors saying that flow volume is infinite? Can anyone help me understand what i am doing wrong>

Thank you.

The problem was an interference between these two parts:

I solved the issue by deleting the holes in the case and then re-creating them with a boolean subtraction from the protruding part.
