Forces function object
 

Hi,
I'm trying to analyse forces related to flow through pipe (for further usage in FSI). I'm using pimpleFoam. For such purpose I'm using forces function object (https://www.openfoam.com/documentati...es-forces.html), however the only result I'm obtaining is the force integrated over entire surface, which is saved in the .dat file. Is there a way to use this function object to calculate force vector field for every mesh element on surface and write it in mesh itself during runtime (similar to vorticity or wallShearStress)?

Hello,

Yes there is a way:

Cheers,
