Hi,
Does somebody know how to estimate the volume fraction at the cell node.
right now i am calculating it by averaging the vof of the neibhouring cells of the node.
But this requires a UDF which has to loop over all the cells which results in a n^2 algorithm. Does somebody know a faster way to do it?
Or is it possible to obtain it directly from fluent?
Thanks
