Hi everyone,

if I let FLUENT calculate total forces that act onto a wall using "Force reports", will the calculation procedure comprise the face areas?
I read the theory guide, but didn't get it .

My problem is, this 3D-wall is meshed by different sized faces. So I will have to inlcude each face area to calculate a total force.
