[GAMBIT] Uniting the faces

aalisha · January 22, 2014, 02:44

Hello Friends,

I am new to fluent. Currently I am using Gambit 2.2.30 for creating the geometry. However whenever i try to join the faces it shows an error" ACIS body" is it a open shell"

Please help me to sort out the issue.

Your volume seems to be not closed.
Enable shade Modus, and you will see

Is this that we can not use one edge for two faces. I think it has something related with the sharing of edges as I am trying it with various designs

select the green volume, and make it invisible.

Then connect all surfaces and try again to stitch all the faces for building your volume.
