Symmetry on GEOM Slices

Glenn, as requested, check this case and try these two options:

1. Uncomment the CELL_CENTERED=T temperature SLCFs and comment the first one (face centered). Run the case and check the slices. Things look more or less symmetric in both slices (they are reading a cell centered value).
2. Now comment the CELL_CENTERED=T temperature SLCFs and uncomment the first one. Looks like temps have been shifted to the left by on cell?

Thanks.

I'll take a look

marcos,
I'm having trouble reproducing the problem. juste to make sure I'm using the right &SLCF entries, could you upload two cases with each one with the &SLCF entries you are using
thanks

Try these two. hot_sphere_cell.fds has the cell centered temperature slice. Looks like this:

Pretty much symmetric.

Whereas the face centered slice (hot_sphere_face.fds) looks like this:

It seems there is a shift in the indexes towards the left for the face centered slice.

same as your cases but with an &INIT line of temperature that defines a small hot region. slice file for test_cell.fds case looks right. slice file for test_face.fds has an extra set of cells on left and bottom
