30.1 Reporting Conventions

For 2D problems, ANSYS FLUENT computes all integral quantities for a unit depth equivalent to $1$ meter. This value can by adjusted to match the specific dimension of your application only by manually revising the Depth in the Reference Values dialog box (see Section  30.11).

The default value of Depth will be equivalent to $1$ meter, even if the units are changed for depth in the Set Units dialog box (e.g., if the units for depth are changed to cm in the Set Units dialog box, the value of Depth in the Reference Values dialog box will be $100$ cm).

For axisymmetric problems, all integral quantities are computed for an angle of $2\pi$ radians.
