Hi there dear Foamers,

I am currently running some simple LES cases and I wish to, during runTime, average some fields of interest. For instance I'm using fieldAverage in my controlDict in the following way

Code:
funtions
{
    fieldAverage
    {
        type                    fieldAverage;
        functionObjectLibs      ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
        enabled                 true;
        cleanRestart            false;
        outputControl           outputTime;
        resetOnOutput           false;
        resetOnRestart          false;
        fields
        (
            U
            {
                mean        on;
                prime2Mean  on;
                base        time;
            }

            p
            {
               mean         on;
               prime2Mean   off;
               base         time;
            }

        );
    }
}
Right now I face multiple 'sudden-stops' here at the University and every time I restart the simulation from its latestTime the averages, specially UPrime2Mean, start all over again. How could I avoid such an issue? Am I setting the controlDict (functions) incorrectly?

Could any expert or someone who has already experienced a similar situation advise me?

Thanks in advance and best regards,

F. Soares.
