How to track the position of a given (Arbitrary) temperature value in a 3D heat transfer in solids model

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi everyone,

I'm modeling heat transfer in a solid cylinder which is at a given inicial temperature (4.2k). In one end of the cylinder I send a gaussian pulse and I use point probes at different positions along the axis of the cylinder in order to track a certain temperature point, lets say 6K. As you imagine, I want to determine the velocity at which this arbitrary point travels along the cylinder.

I don't have any problem doing this, but I have to pick each data from the tables and plot it in a external program, this is a very time consuming task, because I have many data points, so I was wondering if there is any way of doing this automatically?

Thanks,
Daniel
