Time evolution of different quantities in the anti-node cross-section of the loop (z = 0) with A = 0.035 and l = 0.33R. Top-left: average kinetic energy (KE) density in the core and layer region of the loop. Top-right: average internal energy density in the core and layer regions of the loop. Bottom-left: average temperature of the loop (average over both the core and layer). Bottom-right: change in the area relative to the initial value, for the core region of the loop and the numerical domain outside the loop (outside both core and layer).
