Hi

I cannot work out how to get dT/dt ( temperature variation rate) when using COMSOL. I am a beginner and currently using a version 4. I am modelling the heat transfer of a thin pyroelectric solid and I do not know how to get a plot of dTemperature/dTime against time. I have attached a paper below which pretty much gives the results I am looking for. I just need to work out how they did it.


Thanks

Faizan

Hi

if you solve for T (temperature (as in HT) then COMSOL makes the variable Tt readily for you Tt is DT/dt

Check carefully the doc and help for all internal variables, and/or turn on the preferences equation view

Good luck

Hi thanks alot for the help!


I also have a couple more problems

1. How do you change range of the x axis and y axis when your plotting a line graph for a dot within your structure. I am trying to dT/dt against seconds . But I need to reduce the time range between 1e-07 to 1e-02.

2. I have lots of colorful lines but I want just one line how do I get this. I have attached a document to show what I mean. I have also attached a paper which has the graph which i want to plot

3. The project I am using COMSOL for is a pyroelectric cell rengtangle exposed to 30 degrees. I have set the top line of the rectangle as 30 degree and the other three lines as thermal insulation. Is this correct ?? I have explained more on the document below.

Hi

well I cannot tell, but when I do a simple model (4.3a below) it works OK
