Creating a volume between two surface meshes
I have two curved surface meshes as can be seen in the attached image. I want to create a volumetric mesh between these two surfaces. Is there a way to do this via any Ansys tool?
Many thanks

Hello,
You should be able to use the Fluent Meshing for this. Fluent meshing can wrap around your surface mesh and help create the volume mesh.
This video should help you understand the capability (might not be an exact workflow for your problem though).
To be honest, it might be much easier to recreate the geometry since your domain is the region between two surfaces of a sphere. The workflow would be much simpler if you had a solid CAD file.

When you say surface meshes, do you mean nodes and elements? What format is the surface data stored in? What format is available to export the surface data?
