Hello

The question is in the title. I have read some threads about the postChannel utility but I can't figure out how it works ..

Is it a spatial average in (xz) plane at a given time or is it a time-average from the beginning of the simulation of the spatial average in (xz) plane ?

Thanks a lot !
