TemperatureMonitor

Temperature monitor.

Name

name: Unique name for the temperature monitor.

• Required field

Size and Position

Specification of the temperature monitor size and position.

Center + size

Object definition through a center position and size.

center: Center of the object in x, y, and z-directions.

Type: floating-point number

• Unit: m, μm (default), or nm
• Default: (0, 0, 0)

size: Size of the object in x, y, and z-directions.

Use Infinity to define a geometry extending to infinity in both directions along an axis.

Type: floating-point number

• Unit: m, μm (default), or nm
• Constraint: greater than or equal to 0
• Required field

Bounds

Object definition through minimum and maximum coordinate bounds.

min: Values of the x, y, and z coordinates defining the object's lower corner.

Type: floating-point number

• Unit: m, μm (default), or nm
• Required field

max: Values of the x, y, and z coordinates defining the object's upper corner.

Type: floating-point number

• Unit: m, μm (default), or nm
• Required field

Unstructured Mesh

Type: boolean

unstructured: Return data on the original unstructured grid.

• Default: True

For 2D or surface monitor geometries, enable this option to visualize the unstructured mesh in the Post-Run Result. The option is unavailable for 3D monitors.

Time Interval

interval: Number of time steps between recorded temperatures. This setting is used only by transient (unsteady) Heat simulations. The editor does not set up transient Heat simulations.

• Type: integer
• Constraint: greater than 0
• Default: 1
