Finding the drag and lift coefficients with respect to spatial coordinate
 
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
