How to plot time-dependent temperature profile at a point

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi all,

I have 1 question over here, i have been using the SAR head tutorial (Provided by comsol tutorial) to do research for my school project and i have 1 problem over here which is, i cant seems to plot temperature VS time graph. i had searched though the internet for solution and i did follow their steps but still i cant manage to get it. whatever i try to plot, the time will varies but the temperature remains the same throughout which makes my curve looks like one horizontal straight line.

I will really appreciate if someone can take a look at the attached picture (i can't seems to upload my model file here) and suggest to me what should i do next.

Thanks,
Boon

Hi guys,

Anyone have any solution for the above problem? I have used the domain point probe for the above case, and run a time Vs temperature plot. The plot was successfully run but the temperature still remains the same thought out from time = 0 s to 360 s . Was wondering if there is anything i needed in the parameter or variable or ramp up to get the temperature running?

Thanks,
Boon

Hi

Maybe this is stupid, but have you used Point evaluation under Derived values node? Then make a table graph. That is what your picture represents?

Hi,

Thanks for the reply! Nope, i was not using point evaluation. i will explain again how i get the result by picture as i couldn't upload my simulation file.

1. i was using the Domain Point Probe under definition node (see picture 1), after that i enter the x, y z coordinates and fix the point.

2. i added the time dependent solver under study nodes, and typed the range that i wish to plot with (see picture 2).

3. i press compute button and the time-dependent i got the this result (see picture 3).

by the way, i am not sure about the point evaluation method under derived values nodes? can you explain a little bit more?

i found 1 under parametric sweep and there's this parameter which i not really sure what to enter in. I am really sorry if i have asked a stupid question, as i am still trying to get a hang of COMSOL at the moment. i hope my explanation is clear and if anyone at this forum can help me solve my problem too , i will deeply appreciate it. Thanks!

Regards,
Boon
