Summary of the results
Two modelings give results whose only one value exceeds the fixed tolerance
initially. The maximum change is equal to 2.05%, and is thus not very higher than the fixed tolerance (2%). it
is located on the smallest value of temperature and for the weakest moment the T (starting of
problem).
Two modelings, PLAN (TRIA6) and 3D (PENTA15) gives the same results, which is
normal since the mesh and the degree of interpolation are identical.
A finer mesh in the area of the N1 node should improve quality of the results which are
regarded as acceptable taking into account modelings carried out.
