  Which software you are using? Which distance? Can you add more details so that we are able to reply.

  I am using fluent, I have made a cylindrical geometry with pressure swirl injection in the axial direction at the top surface. so I want to calculate SMD at different locations of the domain.

  Is it a steady or transient DPM calculation?

  It is a transient simulation,although i want to lean for cases

  The particle size can be plotted on the DPM tracks. If you create a surface you can also run a DPM Summary: I think you can calculate the Sauter mean diameter from that output file.

  check Summary Reporting of Current Particles in the User's Guide for definitions!

  Actually I have made a cylindrical geometry I want to create surface of specified dimensions, but I am unable to make it. Next I want to extract particle summary in that particular domain.
  I have already extracted Particle summary through console window but it is providing data for whole domain.
  So overall I need value of SMD particular domain.
  Your response is solicited. Thanks for helping me.

  Then you need to create planes or fluid regions to report on. Have a look at surface creation and see if that does what you need.
