Thanks,
I have worked with the calculator filter and figured out how to use the integraton filter.  Just figured that in the CFD world this is a pretty standard thing to do, and might already exist.
Thanks again

I think the best way would be to use the Calculator filter to compute your derived quantities (e.g. whatever field you want mass weighted divided by density) and then use the Integrate Variables filter to get the integrated values of the quantities. I'd need to see some equations before giving you a more precise set of instructions.
By the way, the ParaView User's Guide (http://www.paraview.org/paraview-downloads/download.php?submit=Download&version=v4.3&type=data&os=all&downloadFile=TheParaViewGuide-v4.3-CC-Edition.pdf) is a good place to start getting familiar with ParaView. A printed edition is available but will have to be purchased at http://www.kitware.com/products/books.php. It has a couple more chapters that can be helpful to some users.
Regards,
Andy

Folks,
Any add-ons for doing mass weighted and mass flow weighted averages.
Just getting started with paraview, I think I see the path to do this. But am not proud and am sufficiently lazy to use the works of others ;-)
Thanks
