Hi, i know this is a simple question but i can't seem to find the answer. To find the total heat flux on the left side(3D cube) i use: FEATURE start "left_edge" (0,0) line to (0,0.35) SUMMARY REPORT(Surf_Integral(-k*dx(Temp),"left_edge") ) AS 'Q_left_edge' But how do i find the average temperature along the "left_edge" ? Thank you |

The integral you have computed can be interpreted as the average value times the length of "left_edge". Since you know the length of "left_edge", simply divide by the length. If you don't know the length, divide by Surf_integral(1,"left_edge"), which returns the length. |
