Forces in global frame for rotating domains? xGlobal? -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

cycleodyssey New Member Phil Join Date: Sep 2011 Posts: 5 Rep Power: 14	Hi all, I'm having some trouble determining forces in global frames in CFX 14.0. I have a rotating frame but want to determine all forces referenced to the stationary frame. However force_x, force_y etc are calculated in the local frame by default as per user manual, however even if I prescribe a non-rotating frame (i.e. force_x_Coord 2@...) it reverts back to the local rotating coordinates? There used to be a xGlobal, yGlobal etc. CEL expression, but it has been removed as far as I can tell... Any suggestions? What am I missing? Regards,
