Hello, I have the following problem:
after solving a comparably simple heat transfer problem I want to evaluate the temperature distribution in a domain in such a way that I want to know the temperature range (min and max temperature) of the domain after I remove 10% of the elements of the domain with the coolest temperature and 10% of the elements of the domain with the hottest temperature. Any way to do this?

Tobias,
here is a sketch of a possible procedure:
- integration of 1 in the domain gives you the total volume
- integration of T<T0 gives the volume that is cooler than T0
- adjust T0 until you arrive at the 10 % fraction
- this T0 is the minimum you are after and you can use it, e.g. in a filter for further evaluations
This may be automated in a model method. There may be other more elegant procedures using component couplings and equations from the mathematics interface.
