CFD_UDF
How can I write a UDF that relates the changing cross-sectional diameter of 3D irregular channel to the viscosity.
Since the flow rate is known. May be use the area-average velocity to find the changing diameter along the segment.

If you have a defined surface (interior) at each position of interest you can add up the facet areas too.
I don't have a position of interest the diameter is continuously changing and so must the viscosity.
If there is any recommendation on writing the UDF utilizing the changing x-velocity normal to the cross sectional area, to use it in the empirical viscosity equation it will be most helpful
C_U(c,t) gives you the x-velocity in the cell ...
How can I write the UDF to ass the facets area of a cross section? and can I use the same function for several points along the segment?
Have a look in the manual, there's a section on data storage and facet area is in there.
