Use 2D axisymmetric solution as initial values in 3D

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Dear all,

my non-isothermal flow problem is axisymmetric with a weak perturbation breaking this symmetry. I therefore want to use the easily converging 2D axisymmetric solution as initial values for solving the 3D problem. I already tried to use the general extrusion coupling and can create nice 3D plots of the revolved 2D solution. But I did not succeed to use it in the initial values. How is this done in Comsol 4.0?

Regards,
Simon
