Yes, that's right. It is not a nice solution but you don't have much other choice. THe only other option I can think of is to define monitor points and manually get the max/min values of them. This...

These functions need to be applied to either a physics region or a meshed region. You would have to have these regions present in the mesh but they don't need to be boundaries, just mesh regions is...

Firstly - you have not mentioned any of this before. If this is what you are looking for then why didn't you say so at the start?

You cannot generate line objects in the solver to my knowledge....

What you describe sounds easy - draw a line where you want to calculate it and use the function calculator on that line to get the maximum Air.Velocity and maximum Water.Velocity. Doesn't that do...

Yes, and what is your point?

If the interphase drag is large then the velocity profile looks like your top diagram. If the interphase drag is small then the velocity profile looks like the bottom...

I don't follow what you are saying, and I don't understand why Water.Velocity U-Air.Velocity U does not give what you want.

Have a look in the <CFX_ROOT>/etc/VARIABLES and RULES files. I can find the following variables, not sure exactly which one you need but hopefully it is one of them:
Slip Velocity Magnitude

No. But somewhere in the list will be the variable you are looking for. You just need to find it.

OK, but as the variable you talk about is fundamental to a inhomogeneous model it will be in there somewhere, it is just a matter of finding its name. Look in the CEL reference guide in the...

The variable Slip Velocity is available in CFD-Post, it is in the variables list. I am not sure it is in the solver though. It probably is.

In a inhomogeneous flow there will be a slip velocity...

Most variables available in CFD-Post are also available in the solver during a simulation. I am not sure if the relative velocity variable is available in the solver so have you checked?

Why do you need it? The variable slip velocity is available for post processing.

The relative velocity is already built into the drag force calculation in CFX, you don't need to calculate it...
