Dear all,

I have got the simulation results for the velocity field along time.

Now I need to compute the integral of U over a plane (that is not a patch) defined by its basePoint and normalVector.

I have exhausted all the possibilities I could imagine using execFlowFunctionObjects and swak4Foam.

Could you please shed some light on how to do it?

Thanks,

Thomas
