I'm modeling a droplet moving over a surface and would like to monitor and save the location of its centroid over time, can anyone suggest a method in Fluent to do so? Thanks in advance

Hi,

You can try to track the particles. You can check user's guide: 23.9. Postprocessing for the Discrete Phase (ansys.com)

Thank you

Thanks for your reply. In fact, I'm modeling the behavior of a single droplet using VOF (I'm not using DEM) and I would like to track the location of the droplet (maybe its centroid) with time as well as its speed and save it as an output file. The output data may look like (time, x, y, z, ux, uy, uz).

Thanks once again
