CEL expression in CFD-Post multiple volume
 
Hi everyone,

Now I'm struggling to define the volumeAve(Temperature)@<location>.

If I want to know the temperature of two volumes, how can I write in the 'location' area?

For example,

Component 1: Case 1
Component 2: Cell 1

And at the end, I want to see the data of each time step after heat transfer between two components.

I want to define those two volumes into the function.

I assume you are in CFX-Pre, correct?

If so, you can create a Composite Region. Go Insert/Region/Composite Region

Just filter by 3D dimensionality, and create a union between those volumes.

You can then use volumeAve(Variable)@MyCompositeVolume

..... or you can do a volume average of those two volumes:

TotalVolAve = (volumeAve(T)@Location 1*volume()@Location 1 + volumeAve(T)@Location 2*volume()@Location 2)/(volume()@Location 1 + volume()@Location 2)
