I had subtracted my wind turbine geometry of the cylindrical volume around it.so when I want to mesh it using cooper method in gambit,I got this error.
error:volume contains a void and thus cannot be meshed using cooper scheme. can any body help me plz? |

you will never be able to mesh such a geometry on the fly with hexa or cooper. With tetra, you will.
For cooper or hexa you need to decompose your domain into smaller and hex-meshable subdomains
