Average pressure on a face.

February 18, 2009, 19:21

I have done a simulation in ansys cfx. I want to know if it is possible to get the average pressure on a face. I see that I can visualise the pressure on this face with a contour but I want to know the average pressure on all the surface of the face end not the pressure on each point of the face.

it will be ok if I can get the total force on a face too.

In Post, go to to the Quantitative tab --> function calculator. There you can easily get the averages you need.
