Hello,

I have a fluent model, where the fluid is of constant density.
Structured mesh, well converged.

But the volume flow rate what fluent shows is different when I multiply the area and area weighted average of velocity magnitude.

Did not understand ? Why ?

(Volume Flow Rate) Fluent != (Area) fluent * (Area weighted average of velocity magnitude) fluent

Thanks in advance
