# TSComputeTransientVariable

transforms state (primitive) variables to transient (conservative) variables

## Synopsis

    #include "petscts.h"
    PetscErrorCode TSComputeTransientVariable(TS ts, Vec U, Vec C)

Logically Collective

## Input Parameters

- ts - TS on which to compute

- U - state vector to be transformed to transient variables

## Output Parameter

- C - transient (conservative) variable

## Developer Notes

If `DMTSSetTransientVariable()` has not been called, then C is not modified in this routine and C = `NULL` is allowed. This makes it safe to call without a guard. One can use `TSHasTransientVariable()` to check if transient variables are being used.
