Volumetric Heat Loss UDF - Surface Area and Surface Heat Flux

Hello,
I am trying to write a UDF in Fluent that will first calculate the surface area of any given wall, then obtain the surface heat flux through that wall. I will then need to supply those values to a DEFINE_SOURCE UDF that will be used to calculate volumetric heat loss through the corresponding cell zone. What macros will I need to use to obtain the surface heat flux from the wall, store the surface area and heat flux in a specified memory location, and then pass the surface area and heat flux values to the DEFINE_SOURCE UDF? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks |
