Hi Experts,
In Fluent UDF, C_CENTROID gives coordinates of cell centroid. However, I wonder what the macros C_AVE_X, C_AVE_Y, C_AVE_Z are? And how are they defined?
I think they should be treated by some special tricks. Because in metric.h, strain magnitude calculation for axisymmetric case includes term of C_V/ C_AVE_Y which is "easy violated to divided by zero error" (especially for cells very close to axis).
Any ideas or recommendation are highly appreciated. Thank you!
