For example, this can be used for:
-in sand casting, when u have a model like this pump, and we need to have the inner core...
To get a more accurate model of the internal geometry, main model must be more accurate, I mean on the draft angle during the creation of a model ...
Ok, this is it, enjoy...

1. Step 1:

   1)
   Here is a model of centrifugal pump housing, can be found here: Centrifugal pump housing
   For this model i use some trick how to get a internal geometry (3D model)
   

   

2. Step 2:

   2)
   All you need to do on this model is to close all openings, like to the picture...
   

   

3. Step 3:

   3)
   In the Flow Simulation feature, first click check geometry, than fluid volume...
   Fluid volume will be calculated...see on the pics
   

   

4. Step 4:

   4)
   Check the Create fluid body assembly, and than click check...
   

   

5. Step 5:

   5)
   Here is a result...this is a PART...remember its created by fluid inside housing.. ;)
   

   

6. Step 6:

   6)
   Some renderings...

   

7. Step 7:

   7)
   another one render...
   enjoy
