Unidirectional Conductors: definition (structure)
Definition
A Unidirectional Conductor is defined by:
- a name (and comment)
- a meshing of the section
- a meshing in the length (optional)
- a material
- a type
- specific characteristics belonging to the type
- attributes of visibility
Name
The name to identify the Unidirectional Conductor is set by the user during the creation of this one. Flux PEEC provides the following default names:
- for an automatic creation: GEOMTUBE_1, …
- for a direct creation: CONDUCTORUNIDIRECTIONAL_1, …
A comment (optional) can be added to the name.
Types of Unidirectional Conductors
The types of Unidirectional Conductors and the characteristics useful for their description are presented in the table below.
| Conductor … | Characteristics | Creation |
|---|---|---|
| resulting from a Geometric Tube | Associated Geometric Tube | automatic |
| resulting from a classic geometry description (by Assimilation) |

Types of section meshing
The different types of section meshing available for each type of Unidirectional Conductors are presented in the table below and detailed in next paragraph.
| Conductor … | Types of section meshing |
|---|---|
| resulting from a Geometric Tube |
Uniform Geometric ( only for rectangular sections) Automatic according to the reference frequency* Automatic according to a given value of frequency |
| resulting from a classic geometry description |
Uniform Automatic according to the reference frequency* |
Meshing in the length
Only one type of discretization in the length is proposed: the uniform meshing.
