Kyle88 New Member Join Date: Jan 2018 Posts: 4 Rep Power: 8	Dear all, I have a problem with calculation of maximum temperature of a fluid flowing in a pipe. I created a point of variable maximum (temperature) in a fluid domain and then used a function calculator to display temperature value at this point. The weird thing is that if I use a function calculator to show maxVal in the fluid domain straight away, I get different value compared to the probe method. Does anyone know the reason for this? Am I comparing node and centroid values or something like that?
