extraction of values of secondary flow velocities from fluent

How do you extract values of secondary flow velocities from fluent of a plane?
I need it for a duct having rectangular crosssection.
I know we can extract values of Vx,Vy,Vz and their magnitude using line/rake functions but how for secondary flow velocities????

If the primary flow is Vx, then Vy and Vz are the secondary flows. I'm not sure what your problem is.

If you want to know how to do it without line and rakes, then create the plane surface and export the solution data on your created surface.

Hi,Ranjith Kumar ,Is your problem solved? I met the same problem，I do not know how to make the contour of the secondary flow,can you tell me how to do it?

Thank you！

Kristin
