After completing the CFD computation, how can I retrieve the aerodynamic forces on any component (boundary) from the restart file? This question arises because the boundaries for the integrated forces in the history file are specified in MARKER_MONITORING, but I need to analyze the forces on other components.

Why don't you include all markers in MARKER_MONITORING? You get the aerodynamic coefficients of all individual markers.


You can also save your problem as a multiblock paraview file. Then you have the individual markers available and you can use paraview's surface integration.

If I put all the markers into MARKER_MONITORING, I will only get the total aerodynamic force from the history, not the integrated force for each marker.
My goal is to obtain the aerodynamic forces for all markers from a single CFD calculation.

Code:
MARKER_MONITORING= surface1, surface2

% Sum of the integrals over surface1 and surface2: CL, CD

HISTORY_OUTPUT= AERO_COEFF

Code:
MARKER_MONITORING= surface1, surface2

% Individual integrals over surface1 and surface2: CL(surface1), CL(surface2)

HISTORY_OUTPUT= AERO_COEFF_SURF

Thank you very much; this has solved a long-standing issue for me because I did not see AERO_COEFF_SURF in temp.cfg.

Additionally, I have another related question. May I ask it here in this thread? The question is: If MARKER_MONITORING = surface1, surface2 is given and the results need to be output to the Tecplot file (i.e., OUTPUT_FILES = (SURFACE_TECPLOT_ASCII)), I desire the Tecplot file to generate two zones. However, no matter how many surfaces are in MARKER_MONITORING, they all end up as a single zone in the Tecplot file.

I do not use tecplot, so I do not know if we the write proper multizone information to tecplot.
