HI Fabian, Yep a filter would be good for this operation. Cheers, Spencer.

I will test it, but first of all, I will try to realize this by a filter added to the conditions.xml file of my simulation. I think this could work, too, right?

I actually needed to do a similar thing for a run yesterday in the IncNavierStokes Solver. If you have a look at the feature/IncNS_Sensor branch you will see I have made a few modifications v_PostIntegrate() method within IncNavierStokes.cpp what dumps the error at a user specified IO_NormSteps. You will also need to update the internal integer holding m_normsteps. Hope this helps. Cheers, Spencer.

Is there a possibility to define an output by user for example to calculate the norms or other variables and print them to the screen during simulation? Where is the best possibility to do so in the program-code? Thanks a lot for any help!

Is there an easy way to do so? The postprocessing tool of fieldconvert just can do it at every CheckStep and to do so I will have to do it very often and I always need a chk.-file. Furthermore (maybe it's a bug) the postprocessing module "printfldnorms" of fieldconvert always compares to an exact solution of 0 and never to the given exact solution (but the ouput file of the solver itself compares the exact solution - so there is only a bug in the postprocessing tool). I hope I will get an answer. Thank you.
