I am trying to find the pressure (from) drag along the wall. As seen from the image attached, I am interested in finding Fp ( pressure force along the wall) Which is normal to the wave surface. Further, I want to decompose this force and get its x-component(Fpx).<\/p>\n<p>I am doing a 3D simulation in Ansys fluent. How do I get this pressure force, which is a normal pressure force vector to the wavy surface? Is there a way to get this directly in the fluent? Can someone help me with this?<\/p>\n<p>Thanks in Advance,<br \/>Shubham<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/17-08-2022-1660771572-wave.png\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-233182","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-fluent-ansys-1","topic-tag-fluent-cfd-ansys-1","topic-tag-cfd-post","topic-tag-cfd-udf-fleunt"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["246509","261248","199","22555"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.218.93.53"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["2726"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["233182"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["199","22555","246509","261248"],"_bbp_voice_count":["4"],"_bbp_reply_count":["11"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["233520"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["233520"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2022-08-23 05:54:03"]},"test":"sathesjmail-uc-edu"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/233182","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/233182\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=233182"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
