Hi good morning i am new using comsol 4.1

i have a temperature sensor and i want to know if there is a way to make a temperature test and at the end of the test i can see the variation in the temperature around the sensor and the variation of the electrical resistance in a certain point or face

thanks for your time

Hi

I believe you must define a bit more of your device to be able to set together a model, but having a temperature sensor measuring something heated by an electric current, is possible with COMSOL, provided you know:
geometry and materials with their properties, current or voltage and heat environment (constant temperature region, heat sink

Good luck
