{ EXPORT_HISTORY.PDE

This example illustrates use of the FORMAT modifier in the export of a

HISTORY plot.

The repeat (#R) construct is used to create a comma-delimited data list.

The problem is the same as FLOAT_ZONE.PDE.

variables

temp (threshold=100)

definitions

k = 0.85 { thermal conductivity}

cp = 1 { heat capacity }

long = 18

H = 0.4 { free convection boundary coupling }

Ta = 25 { ambient temperature }

A = 4500 { amplitude }

source = A*exp(-((z-1*t)/.5)^2)*(200/(t+199))

initial value

temp = Ta

equations

Temp: div(k*grad(temp)) + source = cp*dt(temp)

boundaries

region 1

start(0,0)

natural(temp) = 0 line to (long,0)

value(temp) = Ta line to (long,1)

natural(temp) = -H*(temp - Ta) line to (0,1)

value(temp) = Ta line to close
