Hello foamers

My geometry is annular (3D) and I want to do averaging of field variable (i.e. U ) in the theta direction. I not sure how to do this.

I need your help in doing this. Your much-needed help will be appreciated.

Thanks
Shivam

Hi,
You can conduct the simulation and take the averaging and the desired field (e.g. U, p, etc).
Then open the case in paraFoam.
Do 'Clip' and select 'cylinder' in Clip type drop down list.
And then choose 'Plot on intersection curve'

It may give you what you want.
