How do I use force function in report definition in ANSYS Fluent Functions

      (Force(['location'])—calculates the force on the location(s) specified (should be walls) as a vector.
      The expression may include porous walls)

      I want to use the force function above to extract Fx, Fy, Fz  over a small banded blade in radial section in other to get the normal force and tangential force.

      I tried to use the function in the report definition to get that done  but it is having error when I specify the location to compute the force., maybe it want me to specify vector but unsure on how to do that.

      The error is : Mismatch with input type. Expected type is double, Expression type is double vector

      Hello,

      Did you try Force reports? Results > Reports > Forces. It will provide you the static and viscous forces with their coefficients.
