Bloshchitsyn Vladimir Guest Posts: n/a	I want get cross sections of my calculation domain in CFX! And I use USER_GET_MESHDATA function ... I choose parameters: Normal Area Vector ( upper case, it's important ) Integration Points Function return "normal area vectors at integration points"... For CUBE ... I get 12 vectors... sum of 4 of them it's face area... I get 3 areas of faces... Another situation, when I use prism element: I have 9 vectors: sum of 3 vectors it's area of 1 face, sum of 2 vectors another face, and another 4 vectors I don't understand what they are mean... Can you tell me, what mean this 4 vectors for prism element?
