Temperature in a specific point with pde thermal

Dear community,

I am using the pde toolkit (thermal) to solve a transient problem on a 3d geometry. My will is to extract the temperature at a specific point (X;Y;Z) or at the closest node to that point for each time step.

Is this possible?

Thank you,

Thank you for your answers.

Actually I solved with:

getClosestNode = @(p,x,y,z) min((p(1,:) - x).^2 + (p(2,:) - y).^2+ (p(2,:) - z).^2);

[~,nid] = getClosestNode( msh.Nodes, 0, 0, 4e-5 );

Tsmaend=T(nid,end)+273.15;

Hope this helps.

Yes! Check out the interpolateTemperature function.
