visitor Senior Member AH Join Date: Apr 2014 Posts: 282 Rep Power: 13	Dear sirs/madams: Have run an exercise where there is a volume of oil floating on water. This is a classic CFD exercise. Looking for a tool where I can monitor surface area of oil slick as it spreads over time. Transient analysis. Have used surface plane assigned to oil slick top area. But looking for solver monitors/area monitor. Can not find, can see the usual; pressure, velocity, .... . How can I monitor surface area of oil slick against time steps? Please. Thanks.
