Hi Everyone,

I need to create a polar plot (360 degrees azimuths) for the projected area of an isosurface in Fluent. There is the built GUI to get the projected in X,Y, Z (i.e. https://www.afs.enea.it/project/nept...ug/node963.htm)

However, I need an angle interval of 2 degrees. This is further complicated by the need to have the same sweep for different altitudes. This suggests the need for scripting. Unfortunately, I've not been able to find the UDF/TUI equivalent for the GUI function let alone obtain the projected area for an arbitrary vector.

Greatly appreciate any guidance/thoughts on this.

Thanks in advance,
Leong
