Hi!
I need to know the area of my inlet patch in order to be able to specify the average velocity from a giver flow rate. I'm using the mappedPatch BC for the inlet with an average velocity, and a snappyHexMesh-ed mesh. Is there a neat way to find the area of a patch? Cheers, Eivind |

Hi,
If you have field, which is constant over the patch, you can use Code:
postProcess -func 'patchIntegrate(name=inlet,field)' |
