Temperature along Y=1m line

At this point we are interested in extracting the temperature values along the horizontal line, y=1m. First, (Right Click) Model > Insert > Construction Geometry as shown below.

At this point another temperature output must be created. In order to create the temperature output (Right Click) Solution > Insert > Thermal > Temperature. In the "Details of Temperature 2" table set the Scoping Method to Path as shown below. Then, set Path to Path. Your "Details of Temperature 2" table should now look like the following image.
