Subtracting imported volumes from ProE -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

Vidya Raja Guest Posts: n/a	I'm still faced with the same problem........ trying to subtract the volume of a solid constructed in ProE from a cylinder made in GAMBIT. I tried importing the file as IGES, STEP and PARASOLID. My aim is to subtract the volume of the solid from the volume of the cylinder to get the flow domain and mesh the flow domain. But then, I always get an error message saying: CAN'T OPERATE ON VOLUME (of the solid) WITH NON- REAL GEOMETRY. What can I do to get this fixed? Tried all possible means......... is there any other way it can be done?
