Two entirely different results while using two different mesh structure (Mapped and Triangular in fluid domain).

Hi,
I am using AC/DC, Fluid Flow and Heat transfer module to simulate thermomagnetic convection in magnetic nano fluids (ferrofluid). I am getting entirely different results when i use mapped mesh for fluid domain first and when i change fluid domain meshing to free triangular mesh i get entirely different results. I tried to keep on increasing no. of elements in same domain with different mesh elements and both mesh converges to different results. Now i don't know which one is giving me correct results. Did any body else faced the same problem? Can somebody tell me how to rectify this issue?
