Time averaged enthalpy at multiple points

      Hi! 

      I ran a transient multiphase simulation. I turned on the data sampling for time statistics before the calculation. After the calculation was done, I wanted to get the time averaged enthalpy of the working fluid at certain points within the domain. I did as following to get the time averaged enthalpy. 

      I

      But when I use the surface integrals>unsteady statistics> , I get a really large number. I was expecting a number around 4e+5 J/kg. Same with the mean wall temperature value. 

      How do I get the correct value of time averaged enthalpy?

      Hi, can you confirm the sampled dataset or sampling time has a physical converged solution. You can also write the data to a output file and check if the reported numbers are physical.
