Hi everyone !

I use the dsmcFoam solver, and I noticed that there is no output for the number flux through a surface.
However, for my case, I need to know how much particles hit a surface per seconds (#part/s or #part/mē/s)

Unfortunately the RhoNMean output only seem to contain the volumic data (#part/m3), even on the boundary field.

Is there a quick fix to evaluate this quantity (by using the others maybe ?) or do I have to modify the solver ?



Thanks for your help !
Sylvain
