I'm in the process of trying to do a CFD-fluent sim of a model kite created in SolidWorks. My kite comes up as having no volume, therefore when I try to do Boolean>subtract from the enclosure, it won't work.

Is there a way I can subtract from an enclosure, whilst keeping my model ( multiple surface bodies & solid bodies)?

Thanks in advance. Mark
