Different results between 4.0 on Windows and 4.0a on Mac

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

First time COMSOL user here. I have created a file on a Windows machine in version 4.0. The result of the simulation is still embedded in that file. If I open that file on my Mac, using version 4.0a, I can verify that that result is unchanged. However, when I run the simulation again, the result is completely different, and I can't find out why.

The model is a simple simulation of a fluid with two opposing walls of different temperatures, and a gravitational field.

The file is this one: dl.dropbox.com/u/1283686/modeldemo.mph
The result on Windows is this: dl.dropbox.com/u/1283686/result_win.png
The result on Mac is this: dl.dropbox.com/u/1283686/result_mac.png

I hope some of you can point me to the right direction. Right now I don't feel confident that my Mac is generating the correct results.

Kind regards
Stan
