Hello all....
if i am running unsteady simulation, i will get values of lift and drag that will show time periodic curve when the solution is converged. How can i precisely get the mean value of lift and drag from this converged solution...

one cl curve is attached. this curve is showing time periodic convergence from flow time of 40 and onwards. now how can i calculate mean value from it in FLUENT
