Named selection for internal surfaces in the domain

Ahmed Saeed · November 20, 2013, 08:10

Hello,

I want to simulate the flow over an ROV and I have a problem. I drew the ROV on solidworks then I drew the domain and subtracted the ROV from the domain, so now I have the domain with a cavity inside which is the shape of the ROV. I imported this geometry into CFX. The problem is that I want to select the ROV surfaces to define them as Named Selection but I don't know how to do so because they are unreachable !!

I need your help please

Thanks in advance

it is better to do it during meshing process...
