Describing sources
Introduction
We distinguish two types of sources:
- an imposed electric current density (J0)
- an imposed electric potential (V0)
The modeling of these two types of sources in Flux software is detailed in the following blocks.
Imposed density of electric current
It is possible to impose an electric current density (J0) on a region by using the regions known as non-material of the type: imposed current density
The imposed density of current on a face region (3D) or on a line region (2D/3D) is expressed in A/mm2 or in A/mm respectively. This can be uniform or space dependent.
Imposed electric potential
It is possible to impose an electric potential (V0) on a region by using the regions known as non-material of type: imposed electric potential
The electric potential imposed on a surface region (3D) or on a line region (2D/3D) is expressed in Volts. This can be uniform or space dependent.
