Can COMSOL calculate the stream function?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Since COMSOL can plot streamline for a fluid model, where can we can the data it uses for plotting. I can export flow field data, can calculate the streamline in matlab, but still it is somewhat complicated to derive stream function from streamline data in matlab.

So does anybody know how to calculate stream function (2D is enough) in COMSOL? I guess, basically, we need to define a integration along a curve. Anybody have any idea?

Thanks in advance!
