Dividing a Plane into Slices

Hello,
I need to calculate pressure distortion coefficent on the area of 1/6 of the measurement plane. How to create 60 degrees sector on the plane in Ansys Fluent?

Without know a bit more it will be hard to give the best answer. But there is a variable in the Mesh group called Angular Coordinate. Depending on the orientation of your model you may be able to use this and an Iso-Clip using this variable.

Thanks for your reply. I'll try this. To be more clear, i drew a plane. I want to work on the area shown with X in the image to calculate distortion coefficent.
