Plotting sum of probes

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I have a Domain Probe A and a Boundary Probe B. I can plot A and B in the same graph and everything looks fine. Is there some way from within COMSOL to plot the sum of A and B? Or do I have to export the data and plot it externally?

Thanks,
Alan

Hi
you can "define a variable" to be the value of your probe then use the results "derived values" to sum or combine whatever expressions, and if these are for a time series, or for a parametric sweep, you can apply also sum of the columns or rows in the operation node of your table view. Then you have the plot table button to quickly generate a graph

Good luck
