Setting a Local Wire Radius for the Monopole

Specify a local wire radius for the monopole.

The monopole and transmission line are each assigned a different wire radius. Due to the differences in the wire radii, we specify a local wire radius for the monopole.
Note: Local mesh refinement takes precedence over global mesh settings.
  1. In the model tree (Construction tab), select Monopole. In the details tree, select Edge1.
  2. From the right-click context menu, select Properties.
  3. On the Modify Edge dialog (Properties tab), specify the following:
    1. Select the Local wire radius check box.
    2. Set the Radius to 0.015.

  4. Click OK to apply the properties and to close the dialog.
Note: The icon in the details tree indicate that a local wire radius is applied.
