Default Forces and Moments on Porous Media

rsrl is on a distinguished road
I am modeling the aerodynamics of a car and am trying to report forces and moments. I am trying to get the force and moments on a radiator, which is represented by a porous media. When I look at the force and moment reports, the only surfaces that it allows reporting on are wall boundaries. Because the radiator is modeled as a porous media, its surfaces and internal volume cannot be included in the force/moment report.

Is there a way to report forces and moments on porous media in a way that it can be tracked as a simulation progresses for convergence history?

Thanks
