Display results on a different geometry

Hi,
I've got the following problem:
I'm calculating the temperature and displacement field in an axis-symmetric pressure plate (basically a circular ring) of a clutch system using the "Weak Form"-Physics Interface (Comsol 4.4).
The model will later be coupled with a exterior pressure field, which demands a dimension-free notation.
Thus my circular ring has dimensions of [0.66-1]x[0-1] (radius-height).
For presentation purposes I'd like to display my 2D field results on the original geometry of the pressure plate ([0.074 m - 0.1125 m]x[0 m - 0.0123m]).
How do I do that? Any ideas?
Thank you,
Simon

Hi,
I may have found a way to solve my problem:
In my dimension-free model (Model 1) I am defining a general extrusion. In the Desination Map of the extrusion I am entering the scaling factor between my two geometries. Then I am adding a new component with the geometry with dimensions and a random PDGL (Model 2).
After computing both models I am creating a 2D Plot for the model 2 with the Expression comp1.genext1(T1).
So I am basically mapping my Solutions from the dimension-free geometry to the geometry with dimensions.
This works so far, but the expression is only evaluated for the initial timestep. Changing the timestep in the plot-window doesn't help.
How do I specify a timestep in the expression comp1.genext1(T1)?
Thank you,
Simon
PS: Of course I am open to other solutions for the initial problem...

Hi,
Yes, you can specify a time using the "at" operator. It can be any time in the simulation time span; COMSOL uses interpolation in between the specified output times. For example,
comp1.genext1(at(5,T1))
uses T1 evaluated at the time 5 s.
Best regards,
Magnus Ringh, COMSOL

Hi,
thank you Magnus for your answer. Unfortunately, the 2D Plot still displays only the initial timestep.
Maybe thats the wrong way.
Does anyone have a better idea to display my dimensionsfree solution on the original geometry?
Thank you,
Simon

Hi,
I found a solution:
First of all - solving both components in one study always helps *g*
And I needed to scale the source map and not the destination map.
Thank you for your help,
Simon
