Hello. Yes, there is a problem that exported CGNS doesnt consist BCs. So I create slices at appropriate positions limiting their span with Threshold filter by coordiates if needed. Another problem with BCs is that even if you have surfaces there may be very limited variables so you cannot average by mass flow that is absolutely unaccaptable. With slices you have all variables that are difined in fluid domain. More suitable and simple way is using CFD Post but it will consume a license. So I often postprocess "visual features" in ParaView and use CFD Post's Function Calculator for averaging, mass flow calculation on boundaries e.t.c. To my knowledge, there is no such functionality in ParaView (various types of averaging, convenient BC support, convenient multi-variant support, for example, if you need to open 3 separate cases and compute 10 quantities for each case, CFD Post will be one of best choices). But, apart from consuming a license, CFD Post is not so "feature-loaded" as ParaView. There is no Python Shell and only basic tools in CFD Post so use what is more appropriate for particular usecases. The thing that is called post processor in Fluent cannot be described in good words and easily can hang. Don't use it if you can. CFD Post and ParaView compared to this thing in Fluent are unrealistic good!
