  Hi,
  
  I wanted to find the average pressure along a plane that I created in post. This is an incompressible flow. I wanted to know the difference between ave and areaAve in CFD-Post Function Calculator, as they are giving me slightly different results.

  Hello,
  
  Please take a look at the following post. This is the reason why you are seeing different results. They are using different mathematical definitions.
