Hey,

i am looking to report static pressure at various vertices in my fluid at intervals throughout the transient solution.

i am currently defining these points in this fashion:

;### Create Pressure Probes
/surface/point-surface mbrg1_a_1 2.571470 0.000000 -6.670300
/surface/point-surface mbrg1_a_2 2.226960 1.285740 -6.670300

Defining the reports in this fashion:

;#################################################
;### Report Definitions
;
/solve/report-definitions/add probes-static-pressure-mbrg1-a surface-areaavg field pressure average-over 1 surface-names mbrg1_a_1 mbrg1_a_2 mbrg1_a_3 mbrg1_a_4 mbrg1_a_5 mbrg1_a_6 mbrg1_a_7 mbrg1_a_8 mbrg1_a_9 mbrg1_a_10 mbrg1_a_11 mbrg1_a_12 () q


and reporting out in this fashion:

;#################################################
;### Report File Definitions
;
/solve/report-files add probes-static-pressure-mbrg1-a-rfile active yes frequency-of time-step frequency (rpgetvar'storereport) report-defs "probes-static-pressure-mbrg1-a" "flow-time" () file-name .\probes-static-pressure-mbrg1-a.out q

what i am Trying to do is get the pressure at each vertex per (reported) timestep, but what i am getting is the average of all those vertices per (reported) timestep. I tried to set the average-over setting to 0, but this was erroneous.

How might i get individual pressures at each vertex in the *.out reported files?

Any help greatly appreciated

Thanks!

If you want individual reports for each location, then you need to create individual report definitions. Singe report definition will return averaged values.

I think i got around this with the option "per-surface? yes" in the report definition. This is giving me columns of data in the report file, rather than a single averaged value (im hoping this is correct)
