Normal vector is now accessible from the cvs tree.
To use it, one can access to the components of the normal vector by nx, ny or nz.
This is a standard function that is only valid when a surface is defined (browsed).
Note that checking that the normal is correctly used (within the language) is still to be performed (up to now ff3d exits with an error which is not very precise).
Note also that up to now, the correct orientation of the boundary's normal is not checked, you have to ensure it is correct if you work with unstructured meshes. If you use fictitious domain, the normal can be wrong, but this should be fixed quite soon thanks to the work of Cecile and Pascal.

There isn’t the function that give the normal vector of a surface.
For example you can’t calculate the drag/lift force about a body in Navier-Stokes simulation.
