Pressure Drop

Right click on the plane, and select Shaded.
To hide the vectors, right click on the plane, and select Plane vector. Select None.
Left click on the plane, and click the Surface Align icon. Select the inlet surface.
To make the plane a Summary Plane, click Make Summary in the Planes context panel:
To start comparing results, click the Decision Center tab:
In the Decision Center, right click on Summary Values, and click Update summary values.
