KRK Guest Posts: n/a	How does fluent compute cell centroids? Looking in some of their header files, it seems, for a hexahedral cell the formula for (x-coordinate) of centroid is: 0.125*( sum(x-position of nodes) ) However, using this formula, I don't get same result as using the macro C_CENTROID(c,t). Thanks.
