Decreases External Volume in Result Tab

[lbvffor]

Hello!

Why external volume created in model using geometry tool decreases in result tab?

Model is created in autodesk inventor.

Example:

External volume (Air) before Solve.

External volume (Air) after Solve.

Perhaps it is hidden or suppressed from the mesh?

Try right clicking off of the model and selecting 'show all'.

Did you mesh it?

Thanks for your reply.

I use 'show all' and mesh external value.

External volume remains, but decreases very rapidly.

It seems that when it is created through the use of "geometry tools"(ext. value tab) custom user's size of extrenal value not saved in solver.

Maybe it's a bug in version 2015?

Please look at this posts:

In this example external volume retains its size.

Not that I have seen. Could you share a support file (CFZ) for us to check?

Thanks 🙂

While I was preparing support files it worked correctly.

Thank you.
