v4.01.300 TPLA300 - Circular plate subjected to a source of volume heat

Summary:

This test is the result of the independent validation of version 3 in linear stationary heat.

The advantage of this 2D test case plan is to validate a thermal element under various boundary conditions (heat source, imposed temperature).

This test case includes two 2D models, one axisymmetric, the other plane.

The results are compared to an analytical solution.
