It's advisable to use the reader of the result within a "with" statement so is automatically disposed when its use is finished.

See the example below:

analysis = ExtAPI.DataModel.Project.Model.Analyses[0]
with analysis.GetResultsData() as reader:
    result=reader.GetResult("U")
    result.SelectComponents(["X"])
    
    mesh=analysis.MeshData
    nodes=mesh.NodeIds
    
    resultNodal=result.GetNodeValues(nodes)
    print("Max = " + str(max(resultNodal)))

You can also use the Dispose() function on the reader.
