How to create vorticity expression for interrupt control?
 
Hi, im running a steady state simulation and i need to set up an interrupt control that involves the vorticity value at a certain point.

The thing is that the method/syntaxis i need to use REQUIRES to write the vorticity as an expression, and not just a monitor point. Specifically i need an expression that gets the value of the vorticity at point (x,y,z) = (0,7,2) (it doesnt need to be EXACTLY that point, could also be the average vorticity of an small sphere around that point, for example)

I tried putting a named selection of that node in meshing and creating an expresion as vorticity@Node but it didnt recognized the object"node". I tried the same thing using the mesh element of that position instead of the nearest node, but didnt work either.

How can this be done?

Can you use the CEL expression probe(variable)@monitor point location? See the CFX reference guide for more details.

Thanks, i made it work that way (:
