Average in a circle line

Can anyone help me with the problem?
I have a circle plane with a radius of 1. The current model can calculate the concentration in each point. Now I want to know the average concentration in the circle line of x^2+y^2=0.25. How can I do that?
Thanks.

Hello,
I would do it this way:
1. In the Model/Geometry, create a circle exactly where you want (if there is no face there, you can do it by means of a WorkPlane).
2. In the Model/Definitions (by right-clicking) select Model Couplings/Average, select the appropriate "geometric entity level" (edge if you are in 3D, or boundary in 2D), and select the previous circle.
3. Then you have the average value of your variable simply applying the operator name and the variable name, for instance aveop1(c), assuming c is the concentration.
Or else, only for posprocessing purposes, you can do the step 1, and then:
2. In Results/Derived Values/Average/Line Average, select the circle and in the Expression field put your variable, for instance c.
Bye,
Jesus.
