Wall shear stress or Cell yPlus

sharif88 · August 13, 2014, 17:08

Hello everyone
I was wondering if anyone knows a macro or a way to obtain wall shear stress on a wall or a macro for obtaining yPlus.
I found the following macro for wall shear but I have no idea how it works,
NV_V(Shear,=,F_STORAGE_R_N3V(f,t,SV_WALL_SHEAR))
if i wanted to calculate the total shear force on a wall boundary do I have to put this macro inside a f_loop? Actually I tried that but it causes the fluent to get stuck on the initialization stage.
Thanks
Majid

Yes, you need to put this inside a f_loop. Take a look at this thread for reference.

And it would help if you could copy and paste your code here.
