Investigation of the influence of conductivity of two-component geometry in Ansys Transient Thermal PART 3

In this post, we compare the heat conduction dynamics of geometry from the previous postss in two directions: longitudinal and transverse. Of course, all boundary conditions, or more precisely, their value, remain unchanged. The only variable will be the modification of their position.

Transverse or Longitudinal  - which  conduction is more dynamic ?

In the next stage, we define the finite element mesh. Due to the fact that we are dealing with simple geometry, the only variable we will determine is the size of the finite element. In our case it will be a cube with a side length of 1mm.
