Use the Max/Min Volume (

),
Max/Min Surface 2D (

),
Max/Min Surface 3D (

),
Max/Min Line 2D (

), and
Max/Min Line 3D (

) plots to plot the maximum and minimum values of an expression and the points there they are attained within the geometry.
When plotting the maximum and minimum value, an associated table appears in the Table window (underneath the
Graphics window if using the default COMSOL Desktop layout). The table contains the maximum and minimum values along with the coordinates for the corresponding locations. The coordinate columns’ titles contain the space variable names from the data set, if you use a
Cut Plane data set, for example. Add a
Deformation subnode as needed. Right-click a
2D Plot Group or
3D Plot Group to add these plots from the
More Plots submenu.
Under Advanced, define the number of refinements of each mesh element when computing the maximum and minimum by entering a value in the
Element refinement field (the default is 2). Edit these other settings if required:
