How to... define user variable in Ansys Postprocessing

Very often we need to define a given area / zone / separated fragment with one variable. For example, it could be the average temperature of the model's cross-section as a function of time. For this type of operation, the function of defining your own variables from the level of postprocessing is very useful.
