      Most post-processing surfaces in ANSYS Fluent can’t be restricted to certain zones. For most cases this is not a problem because you can use iso-clips afterwards to trim surfaces to certain regions. However, for a dual cell approach like NETM (non-equilibrium thermal model for porous zones), where a fluid and a solid cell zone occupy the same space, it can be necessary to restrict post-processing or monitoring to a specific zone. This is only possible using iso-surfaces. The attached describes the process of creating point-like post-processing surfaces that can be used for monitoring or reporting of results in individual zones.
