This will show the values of the cell centroids adjacent to the wall.  2) In CFD-Post with a user-defined surface. You can use the &#8220;offset from surface&#8221; option, with surface-normal as the direction. Specify the normal offset distance, and the velocity will be interpolated to that surface.  3) EnSight has the same offset surface feature as CFD-Post, available under &#8216;create->elevated surfaces&#8217; menu option.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-161583","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-19-2","topic-tag-fluent","topic-tag-fluent-post-processing","topic-tag-fluid-dynamics","topic-tag-general"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_wp_page_template":["default"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27796"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.56.168.180"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["1-24-2023  20:20:06"],"_btv_view_count":["3934"],"siebel_km_number":["2057109"],"product_version":["19.2"],"km_published_date":["2018-11-22T03:30:38.000Z"],"family":["Fluid Dynamics"],"application_name":["FLUENT"]},"test":"articlesansys-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/161583","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/161583\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=161583"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
