Al, the explanation could be that the sauce pans are not machine flat, thus have a much smaller contact area than their measured diameter would indicate. A machined flat surface with the mat sitting on a very flat surface would probably yield much different results. Trying to make laboratory accurate measurements with jury rigged apparatus sometimes yields poor results.
