Significant Digits not enough

Significant Digits not enough

(OP)
Hi everyone,
I am doing transient heat analysis. The power of the heat source is very small and the time of heating is rather short (1e-6 sec). As a result, temperature rise is small. When I am plotting the result in variable viewer, the graph looks fine. However, when listing the results, it does not have enough significant number, thus telling me everywhere is the same as initial condition.
Can you help with this? Please see screenshots below.
Thanks a million.
Zicheng
