Evaluation of the Accuracy of the Solution to the Heat Conduction Problem with the Interval Method of Crank-Nicolson Type

The paper deals with the interval method of Crank-Nicolson type used for some initial-boundary value problem for the onedimensional heat conduction equation. The numerical experiments are directed at a short presentation of advantages of the interval solutions obtained in the floating-point interval arithmetic over the approximate ones. It is also shown how we can deal with errors that occur during computations in terms of interval analysis and interval arithmetic.
