Time-averaged quantities

August 15, 2005, 15:35

While Fluent offers the possibility of plotting time-averaged quantities such as mean velocities and pressures, it is not possible to obtain such information for time-averaged wall shear stress or time-averaged vorticity magnitude.

I would appreciate if someone could direct towards the best way to get such values.

Best Regards

I hear that time-averages of some of the wall-related quantites such as wall-shear stress (skin-friction coefficient) and wall heat transfer coeff. (Nusselt number) are being added in 6.3.
