HyperWorks CFD Volume Mesh Help

Hello,

 

I am trying to run a CFD analysis on HWCFD for my FSAE Team. I have followed the videos and manuals provided to me by our representative and can't get the simulation running. Steps I followed are:

Surface meshing in HyperMesh

Wrap meshing in HWCFD

Wind tunnel geometry creation and boolean operation

Geometry check and repair

Flow parameter setup

Walls setup

Boundary layer setup

Refinement zone setup

Volume+Surface Batch meshing

The result is as follows. Log shows OK and mesh looks pretty well put together.

When I try to run the simulation from the solution menu I get the following:

I don't know if I may have missed any steps but the volume mesh is clearly created and visible, except when I go out of the section cut menu with it enabled, which makes the solid look like this:

Any help is appreciated. Thank you
