All,

I am trying to model fluid flow inside of a CAD object.

How do I create a domain inside the object that I can mesh?

I have capped all the openings.

Thanks,
John

Hi

if you imported a hollow tube, and capped the two ends, then you have a "domain" for the meshing and the fluid physics

But if your volume imported is not recognised as a "volume", only lines, you need perhaps to knit it together with a "convert to solid" geometry operation

Good luck
