  Hello I just made a surface geometry for ansys forte in solidworks and imported the stl file to forte but it give me the watertight error . I imported each valve as a surface and the pistons surface is located in TDC and I placed two holes in the way of the valves on head .nHow can I solve this watertight error ? Or what is the geometry's problemn

  Hello, nThe error has got to do with the way you have created the geometry. To avoid this error, please create the whole cylinder and ports as one solid and each valve as a separate solid. Then, perform a boolean operation of cylinder and ports. n
