Postprocessing/Displaying Moment on SMM/transient Simulation

stc41061 · November 19, 2015, 07:55

Hello everybody,

I am trying to display the (time-averaged)results (Moment) of an transient simulation in Fluent (R16.1). Displaying the values for the moment via the "report" for steady-state is no problem.
Also I have worked on the tutorials for sliding mesh modelling and the postprocessing part. But in this case "only" the values for mass flow inlet and outlet were displayed.
I have tried different options in the section "monitors", but I was only able to create surface-monitors of pressure or a plot of the moment-convergence.

What I have thought of was to create a surface-monitor of the pressure on the relevant surfaces, determine via FFT the averaged value and compute by "centre of pressure" and "Surface Integrals -> Area" the time-averaged moment. Any other ideas?

I could also post some pictures or upload the case and data if this might help?

Nobody who could give me some advice?
