Verification & Validation
From the Ansys Mechanical APDL Verification Manual problem VM119, the calculated centerline temperature was 420.0 F (215.6 C). The percent error between these two calculations is 7.524(10)^-4%, which is considered negligible. In conclusion, the solvers calculation for the centerline temperature is accurate.
