I am attempting to plot a mesh 3D graph that displays how Cost varies with t, T and P. I then want to solve this graph to find the coordinates that gives the minimum value of Cost. This is the equation relation time, pressure, temperature to cost:
C = (t/60) + (0.18*(T-1073)*(t/3600)) + (1.75*(P/6894.76)*(t/3600));
This is the code I currently have and it doesn't seem to work
T=1073:1:1223;
t=1418.4:86.54:14400;
P=533984.04:4254.16:1172108.74;
[tm,Tm,Pm] = meshgrid(t, T, P);
C = (tm./60) + (0.18.*(Tm-1073).*(tm./3600)) + (1.75.*(Pm./6894.76).*(tm./3600));
figure(1)
mesh(t,T,P,C)
grid on
xlabel('t')
ylabel('T')
zlabel('P')

What about min function?

It is hard to plot a function of three variables. For some approaches, see Plot 3-D Solutions and Their Gradients (this uses PDE Toolbox, but you don't need to have PDE Toolbox to understand or use the plotting ideas).
Good luck,
