CurrentSource
A current source, similar to a voltage source, but the current is impressed in the model.
Example
application = cf.Application.getInstance() project = application:NewProject() -- Create a FEM line port cuboid = project.Contents.Geometry:AddCuboid(cf.Point(0,0,0), 1, 1, 1) cuboid.Regions[1].SolutionMethod = cf.Enums.RegionSolutionMethodEnum.FEM dielectric = project.Definitions.Media.Dielectric:AddDielectric() cuboid.Regions[1].Medium = dielectric FEMLinePort = project.Contents.Ports:AddFEMLinePort({cuboid.Edges[1]}) -- Add a current source to the FEM line port source = project.Contents.SolutionConfigurations.GlobalSources:AddCurrentSource(FEMLinePort)
Inheritance
The CurrentSource object is derived from the Source object.
Usage locations
The CurrentSource object can be accessed from the following locations:
- Methods
- SourceCollection collection has method AddCurrentSource(table).
- SourceCollection collection has method AddCurrentSource(FEMLinePort).
Property List
- BoundingBox
- A box indicating the bounding box of this entity. (Read only Box). (Read only Box)
- Impedance
- The reference impedance (Ohm). (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
- Label
- The object label. (Read/Write string)
- Magnitude
- The source magnitude. (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
- Phase
- The source phase (degrees). (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
- Type
- The object type string. (Read only string)
Method List
- Delete ()
- Deletes the entity.
- Duplicate ()
- Duplicates the entity. (Returns a Object object.)
- GetProperties ()
- Returns a table of properties representing the state of the object. The properties table can be used with the SetProperties method to change multiple properties of the object in one step. (Returns a table object.)
- SetProperties (properties Object)
- Modifies the state of the object using the provided table of properties. This method is used to modify multiple properties of the object in a single step.
Static Function List
- GetDefaultProperties ()
- Creates a table containing the default settings to create an object. (Returns a table object.)
