vitor New Member Vitor Braga Join Date: Oct 2009 Posts: 28 Rep Power: 16	Hi, I'm trying to calculate the average velocity in the outlet of a pipe. I use the filter Integrate Variables, but I dont know how to interpret the data, I mean, what is the difference between the values of velocity in the Cell Data and Point Data? They are quite different. If I wish to calculate the average velocity in the outlet, which should I choose? Just to make sure, Paraview integrates in the area, so all I have to do is divide this value by the area of the pipe, and this will give me the average velocity, right? Thank you. BR, Vitor.
