Default dynamic contact angle / contact line velocity

Hello,

I know there are many discussions about this theme and it's problems but no approach about the contact line velocity.

The results of my two phase flow high dynamic simulation depend extremely on the value of the contact angle at the walls. So I want to use an approach for the dynamic contact angle. Everything works fine but I have to read the velocity of the moving contact line. (Currently I define a velocity u v w and the contact angle changes in response to the orientation of the contact line (normal of the free surface) and the velocity vector )

So there is the problem that a no slip boundary has no velocity. Therefore I want to use the velocity in a certain distance of the wall. Does anybody have an idea how to read the value of a variable with the coordinates x,y,z in CEL without defining a Monitor Point? Is there a way to implement something like that:

interface_vel=Oil.velocity (x, y, 0.001[m]) ?

Thanks!
