dA1 is small surface element of circular cylinder and x=7.6m,distance x is between center of elliptic and center of circle
tanks a lot

Then extend both small pipes, and split volume with sweeped surfaces.
Then create 3 planes, and split volume into 4 pieces
Start meshing with pipes

I didn't change pipe dimensions.. as you can see the hollow doesn't go through the whole domain.
I just extend the diameter of the pipe (topology), and this surface will be treated as interior, not as wall

thanks for your help,maybe i should describe more about my problem,small pipes are wall and large cylinder is pressure farfeild,complete geometrry is consist of two small circular cylinders with D=3.8m&H=6.365m,distance between them is x=4.75m,third cylinder is elliptical&tilt cylinder H=8.596m&D1=4.686m&D2=3.0815m,rotate this cylinder 45 degree on negetive Z direction and translate y=8.1m,large cylinder treate as pressure farfeild with D=19m&H=16m,then i substract three small cylinedrs of large cylinder,i want to mesh by hex element this geometry but i cant!!!!
attachment images discribe my problem please see them
thank a lot

your geometry isn't the same as in your third post...
post other view of your geometryto see how small cylinders are "intercepting" together

then it will be challenging to mesh it with full hexa (that's my point of view)

i try meshing by hex cooper element but recieve this error:
independent loop of swept faces on volume,volnme1 had mismatched intervals assigned and thus cannot be meshed using the cooper tool
