How to find volume maximum value of a boundary?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello,
I am having a problem in calculating the maximum temperature of a boundary in my model. For a domain i simply go to derived values under result and press right click and choose volume maximum, there in the setting of volume maximum i can choose the domain where i want to calculate the maximum value of a variable, in my case it is temperature. However, this time i want to calculate the maximum temperature of a boundary in my model, but the volume maximum option only shows domain to choose from the list.
Can anyone help me to find out how can i choose a boundary in the volume maximum option or is there anyother way to calculate the maximum temperature of a boundary in my model?
any suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks!

If I understand you correctly, you're trying to get a surface maximum, not a volume maximum. In which case, you go to Derived Values > Maximum > Surface Maximum.
A very good resource for learning many powerful post-processing techniques in COMSOL is this document, which addresses your question on page 4: www.comsol.com/zmags/essentials-of-postprocessing-and-visualization .
Best,
