      After performing a transient simulations, it might be desirable to replace instantaneous values with the mean values obtained from time sampling. One usage is to perform one-way coupled steady DPM particle tracking that accesses mean quantities (rather than the instantaneous quantities that are available by default). The attached resolution document describes how to use Custom Field Functions to make this substitution.
