non-uniform initial temperature distribution

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi all,

I am trying in a 2D model get a non uniform initial temperature distribution. I have made an analytic function, like T = 1000*e^(-4x)

I think I have to set 'x' first, but I don't know how to do it.

Can anybody help me to achieve this?

Thanks!!

Comsol should know a priori the spatial coordinates, hence you have not to define x.
I suggest you to create a piecewise function (pw1) where you specify where x is supposed to vary, and then you can set a Temperature boundary where T=pw1(x).
