Default summing phases in a VOF analysis

Hi,

I was wondering if there is any way to sum the amount of a specific phase that went through an outlet in a VOF analysis.
I will try to explain.

I have a VOF analysis with 2 phases (lets say air and water), there are:
1 inlet and 2 outlets.

after a given time (completion of analysis) a certain amount of one of the phases (lets say water for example) has left the domain (trough one - or both of the outlets). Is there a way to sum up the total amount of the water phase that went through each of the outlets?

Thanks.

results->fluxes

select the phase and mark the inlet/outlet etc, you will get the mass flux imbalance and all you are looking for...
