Hey Guys,
I'm building a model with a heating included. After a few minutes I'm interested in the cooling process. How do I stop the heating process that i can start the cooling?
I have COMSOL Version 4.0a.
Thank you very much!
Jaques

HI,
From my knowledge , changing the boundary and domain sets maybe work.
e.g. Heat source can be written as 1000*(t<=100)+0*(t>100) to simulate the following process:
The first stage from start to 100s, model is heated with 1000 watts;
The second stage from 100s to the end, mode is cooled in the air.
Hope it will help, good luck.
