I don't understand something about the max function in OpenFoam :


With the following code lines :
Info<< "Full Field Max =" << max(pa).value()<<endl;
Info<< "boundary Field Max =" << max(pa.boundaryField()) <<endl;
Info<< "internal Field Max =" << max(pa.internalField()).value() <<endl;



I have the output :
Full Field Max = 1.45125e+06
boundary Field Max = 2.13539e-08
internal Field Max = 176.63




Can you explain why "internal Field max" and "Full Field max" are different?



PS : It is a parallel computing.

Ok... I have the explanation.
I think there is a problem with max(pa).value in parallel case.

If i use gMax(pa), the result is coherent with the internalFiel result.
