Hi
I want to plot average velocity against iteration in FLUENT. Can anyone help me? Thanks. |

What exactly are you trying to plot? You just need to create a monitor and choose average velocity (choose the appropriate weighting scheme, area-weighted average or mass-weighted average). If you are trying to plot velocity at a point, then create a point monitor. If you are trying to calculate average velocity over a plane then create a plane monitor. Then tell the minotor to print to console or plot to window as you like. It plots everything vs iteration by default. You can even output to file. |

Thanks!
Is there any way to plot with radial position(r/R) as the x-axis? like averaged gas holdup vs radial position. Thanks in advance! |

How would you define r? Fluent works in x,y,z. Depending on how you want to visualize your results, you will need to setup the post-processing either in Fluent or in whatever program you use to visualize. You need to define r and then plot against r. You need to decide how you're going to do this, it can be done in many ways. |

Is there any way to calculate the average of the monitored parameter by iteration?
I have a oscillating solution and I want to use the average value in a period of iteration. Cheers Negin |
