Since your values in each vector are all the same, why are you carrying vectors?

The vector calculate @ each 1m point of the line

I do not understand why the sum from 0 to 1751 produces different results. It seems to me that the problem is related to units...

If you tell Prime that it should multiply two vectors, you of course get the scalar product.

For what you seem to intend "vectorization"  as already shown by others is intended.

See the difference:

BTW, the unit for your Thermal Expansion Coefficient is wrong! It sure should not be 1/coulomb!

Use Delta°C or even better K (Kelvin)

 

And I guess its always better to close one thread before opening the next one. See: Re: No solution found on solve block, but root fun... - PTC Community
