The depth should make no difference to your answer otherwise the problem is not 1D so you should be using a 2D mesh anyway. > For my problem its quite important as I add a heat source term (Joule > heating/unit volume) so > the heat to add would be very large for thickness=1. and I need to model > something with radius (external) = 0.03 m, > so quite little. Just build it explicitly into the expression for the source term. There is no need for a 2D grid. If you must have depth then just use a 2D grid with 1 grid cell. It is basically the same as using a 1D grid. Hope this helps. -- Daniel Wheeler
