3. Modeling A

3.1. Characteristics of modeling

We use the AXISpuis AXIS_DIAG models.

Only half of the bar is shown (symmetry).

3.2. Characteristics of the mesh

The mesh consists of 40 quadrangles of the same size. The following types are considered in succession:

Modelizations	Meshes
AXIS	QUAD4 QUAD8 QUAD9
AXIS_DIAG	QUAD4

3.3. Tested sizes and results

We test the temperature at \(t\mathrm{=}1\) at a node in the plane of symmetry \((x\mathrm{=}0)\)

The solution complies with the analytical value at less than 0.1% for a time discretization of 100 time steps.
