Display Pressure gradient CFX POST
 
Can I display the radial pressure gradient at outlet of my domain in CFX post ? If yes, how it works ?

Thank you for your help

you can basically create a contour on your outlet and plot whatever you want...
all you need so is to create an expression (and a variable to plot the expression) of the radial gradient:

supposing that your axis is Z

radialGradientPressure = Pressure.dX x cos(theta) + Pressure.dY x sin(theta)

I don't know the perfect vocabulary but it should work...

you can also export the Pressure and the radius on an Excel file and create your own calculation
