Finding the drag and lift coefficients with respect to spatial coordinate -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

Djphx New Member Djphoenix Join Date: Oct 2018 Posts: 7 Rep Power: 7	Hi, I am simulating a flow around a 3d circular cylinder. I know how to obtain the cd and cl values with time for a transient model but am unaware of how to get the cd and cl values at each location (spanwise/ lengthwise). Is there a way to get the cd and cl values integrated over a fixed length of area (like cd and cl values integrated over the location/total length ratio of 0 to 0.1 and 0.1 to 0.2 and so on)? Please help. Thanks in advance
