Message	We have solidworks 2009 at work here and I play with the CFD from time to time but I'm not sure if im using the right one... Under the "Evaluate" tab there is a "flowXpress" or something like that... It pops up a frame on the left. It's the one that says "must have lids/closed geometry" I figured out that you need to build the lids as separate parts and do the simulation as an assembly so you can have closed geometry but yet open them to select the "inner face that contacts the fluid"... The thing is... I can't get it to simulate multiple outlets.. It will only do single inlet and single outlet... And it doesn't really do flow THROUGH the intake/throttle body opening, it just does flow INSIDE the Throttle body/plenum area... Is this the same thing that your using?
