If I understand you correctly, you want to do a plain average of the fields over the existing time snapshots?

In addition, do you mean that the average results for a dynamic mesh are acceptable for doing an analysis? I ask this because there are regions in the mesh that probably stop existing on a specific location in 2 different time snapshots, which makes it somewhat impossible to do an actual average of the field

On the other hand, are you trying to do an average only on the static region?


I ask all of this because from what I can remember, the averaging mechanism needs to access the previous fields in time, which are usually created by the function object itself. But the "execFlowFunctionObjects" was designed for pretty much loading each time snapshot individually, which essentially "breaks the flow".

Therefore, if you can describe the exact averaging operation you want to perform, it might be easier to create a new application that helps you do this, hence my previous questions.

Best regards,
Bruno
