Abstract
A study is carried out to determine when 2D modeling is sufficient for a 3D problem. Numerical and analytical errors are identified for different solved problems and the effect of disregarding the length of the system is studied (i.e. regarding it as infinite). A minimum length is determined for which the 2D results are better than the 3D results
