Extract temperature field on object face.

[rohskopf]

In AEDT Icepak I want to extract the temperature field on an object face. How to do this in PyAEDT?

Hi @rohskopf ,

I would use a Face monitor and then get with get_solution_data the temperature.

https://aedt.docs.pyansys.com/version/0.7/API/_autosummary/pyaedt.icepak.Icepak.assign_surface_monitor.html#assign-surface-monitor

This will return a FaceMonitor object:

If you do not like this approach, you can directly compute the Temperature of the object/Face using the fields calculator:

Hopefully it helps you.
