Hey Lakshmipriya,
Your intent makes sense, but if you set your smart campaigns up exactly as you've written it out, the logic will be flawed, and you'll likely run the email send on people who would have actually opened the email.
As you write it, your smart list criteria would be not has opened email X, then your flow steps would be wait 3 days, then send email Y.
What you actually want to use to achieve your goal is smart list criteria set to was sent email X, then your flow steps should be wait 3 days, then send email, with choice 1: if not opened email X, send email Y, and default: if not, do nothing.
The issue with your initial option is that it qualifies the not opening email X 3 days before you send email Y, and will not guarantee that those who receive email Y have not opened the email during that three day wait period. The latter option waits to check whether they've opened it until just before email Y is sent, so the data will be more accurate.
To enable this for both email 1 and 2 you would build out as above two separate smart campaigns that change only the emails they refer to for X and Y.
Hope that helps
