Measuring the temperature at a point

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Sir,

In a non-isothermal pipe flow model, we have specified wall heat transfer with external temperature as 293.15K and the check box for taking average from adjacent domains is also checked. After solving, the 3D temperature plot for pipes shows 293.15K, however if we try to point evaluate at the exit of the pipe, it is giving the value close to 313K. We are not able to know why the variation is occuring. Can someone comment on this issue?
