Get data over a plane

mali28 · May 25, 2012, 12:14

Hello,

I am simulating discrete phase using lagrangian tracking. I want to get the information about particle variables like diameter, temperature, residence time written to a file, that pass through a particular plane. Does any one know how to write a UDF for this?

It may be something inside DEFINE_ON_DEMAND macro.

Thank you in advance.

Don't do that with fluent - definitely don't use a UDF.
Fluent can automatically calculate all these variables. Just use a solution analysis software...
