Sedullo is on a distinguished road
I am running a case of Natural convection heat transfer between a hot vertical plate and the atmosphere.

I am using buoyantBoussinesqPimpleFoam, it is a laminar case, so the Grashof number is laminar and the turbulenceProperties are set to "laminar", so there is no RAS turbulence model.

I would like to find the value of the Nusselt Number along the wall, but in the previous discussion I did not find anything that could fit for my case.

My programming skills are quite limited so I kindly ask you to give me a sort of step by step explanation if you have some ideas.

Thanks for the help
