Hi Cory,
Thank you for your email. I tried that example sphere source -> Delaunay3D -> 
Python Annotation filter and it works fine. I set the python expression to  
algs.sum(algs.volume(inputs[0])) and then to sum(volume(inputs[0])) and it 
works in both cases. The type from the information panel is Table.
But, it turns out that for my case the problem is with the Python expression, 
when I use this expression algs.sum(algs.volume(inputs[0])) I get errors while 
this expression sum(volume(inputs[0])) solves the problem. The type from the 
information panel is Table.
Can I ask what does inputs[0] mean in the python expression. I have no 
background in python, that's why the expression seems odd to me.
Regards,Islem Megdiche

 One more thing: you should be able to change the Python expression to
sum(volume(inputs[0]))

Hi Islem,
Sorry for the late reply. I've been swamped lately.
Thank you for the detailed explanation of what you are doing. That really helps 
us narrow down what might be going on.
I'm not sure what the problem is. I have a simple pipeline example where this 
works:
Sphere source -> Delaunay3D -> Python Annotation filter
The Delaunay3D filter produces an unstructured grid, from which I am able to 
get the volumes.
I suspect ParaView readds your OpenFOAM data set as a multiblock data set? 
Could you look at the Info panel and report it's Type. It should be the first 
item under the "Statistics" sub-section.
If it is indeed a multiblock data set, please try this:
Place a MergeBlocks filter between your Threshold filter and Python Annotation 
filter.
Please see if that works. If it does, we'll move on to multiplying the volume 
by the water fraction.
Thanks,Cory

Hi cory, I was working on the case of water computationin the desired domain 
taking into account your suggestions. I attached heresome pictures that helps 
to figure out how I did it. I created the domain inwhich I want to compute the 
volume of water using the clip filter and then Ithresolded the clipped domain 
to  contain only the cells ranging between0.5 and 1 of alpha water and I ended 
up with the domain illustrated in picture3, and then I applied the annotation 
filter setting up the array association toPoint Data and the expression to 
algs.sum(algs.volume(inputs[0])), but I endedup with an error in the render 
view and output message stating thatAttributeError:'None Type' object has no 
attribute 'GetCellData'. I couldn'tunderstand the reason, I tried  all the 
array Association options, I gotthe same error, except for the Row Data, I got 
this error:AttributeError:'NoneType' object has no attribute 
'GetNumberOfArrays'.(picture 4 and 5). I googled that link

 It  says that I need to set the input whichI didn't know how to do it since it 
doesn't ask for any input in the PropertiesPanel. Any solutions for this 
problem ?? In this expression algs.sum(algs.volume(inputs[0])), whatdoes the 0  
stands for ?   I think if I threshold the domain in which Iwant to calculate 
the volume of water, let's say between 0.5 and 1, then I willend up by 
inaccurate water volume because I am including volume of air in thecomputed 
volume and on the other hand I am ignoring the cells that contain lessthan 0.5 
of water. That's why, I am looking for an algorithm that multiplyevery cell 
containing water by the coefficient alpha water. You find attachedin picture 6, 
an example of how I want to calculate the water volume. I don'tknow how to 
program it. Any helps concerning this matter will be verymuch 
appreciated.Regards,Islem MegdichePhD student

 Hi Islem,

Please reply-all to keep the discussion on the list so that others may
benefit from the discussion.

First, is there a data array that describes whether a volume element
in your mesh contains water or some other element? If so, you can use
the Threshold filter under the Filters -> Alphabetical -> Threshold
menu to select only the elements representing water. You will have to
set the minimum and maximum to the value that represents water, then
click Apply.

HTH,
Cory
