ElectricCurrentDensityValue

ElectricCurrentDensityValue[pred,vars,pars]

represents a current density boundary condition for PDEs with predicate pred indicating where it applies, with model variables vars and global parameters pars.

ElectricCurrentDensityValue[pred,vars,pars,lkey]

represents a current density boundary condition with local parameters specified in pars[lkey].

Details

  • ElectricCurrentDensityValue specifies a boundary condition for ElectricCurrentPDEComponent and is used as part of the modeling equation:
  • ElectricCurrentDensityValue is typically used to model an electric current density , normal to the boundary, in units of [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], {"A", , "/", , {"m", ^, 2}}, amperes per meter squared, {{(, "Amperes", )}, /, {(, {"Meters", ^, 2}, )}}}, QuantityTF]], that enters or leaves through a boundary.
  • A positive value denotes an inward electric flow, and a negative value denotes an outward flow.
  • ElectricCurrentDensityValue models an electric current density , normal to the boundary, with dependent variable in volts [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], "V", volts, "Volts"}, QuantityTF]] and independent variables in [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], "m", meters, "Meters"}, QuantityTF]].
  • Stationary variables vars are vars={V[x1,…,xn],{x1,…,xn}}.
  • Frequency-dependent variables vars are vars={V[x1,…,xn],ω,{x1,…,xn}}.
  • ElectricCurrentDensityValue with a specified scalar electric current density , normal to the boundary, models:
  • ElectricCurrentDensityValue with a specified electric current density vector [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], {"A", , "/", , {"m", ^, 2}}, amperes per meter squared, {{(, "Amperes", )}, /, {(, {"Meters", ^, 2}, )}}}, QuantityTF]], models:
  • with a unit normal.
  • ElectricCurrentDensityValue with a specified current [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], "A", amperes, "Amperes"}, QuantityTF]], normal to the boundary, models:
  • with [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], {{"m", ^, 2}}, meters squared, {"Meters", ^, 2}}, QuantityTF]] the boundary area. Currents are automatically converted to a normal electric current density .
  • Model parameters pars are specified as for ElectricCurrentPDEComponent.
  • The following additional model parameters pars can be given:
  • parameterdefaultsymbol
    "BoundaryUnitNormal"Automatic
    "Current", electric current in [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], "A", amperes, "Amperes"}, QuantityTF]]
    "CurrentDensity"
  • {0,...}
    		• , electric current density in [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], {"A", , "/", , {"m", ^, 2}}, amperes per meter squared, {{(, "Amperes", )}, /, {(, {"Meters", ^, 2}, )}}}, QuantityTF]]
    "NormalCurrentDensity", normal electric current density in [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], {"A", , "/", , {"m", ^, 2}}, amperes per meter squared, {{(, "Amperes", )}, /, {(, {"Meters", ^, 2}, )}}}, QuantityTF]]
    "Thickness"-, thickness in [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], "m", meters, "Meters"}, QuantityTF]]
  • All model parameters may depend on the spatial variables .
  • In two dimensions, the parameter "Thickness" is taken into account to convert the current from units [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], "A", amperes, "Amperes"}, QuantityTF]] to [TemplateBox[{InterpretationBox[, 1], {"A", , "/", , {"m", ^, 2}}, amperes per meter squared, {{(, "Amperes", )}, /, {(, {"Meters", ^, 2}, )}}}, QuantityTF]].
  • To localize model parameters, a key lkey can be specified and values from association pars[lkey] are used for model parameters.
  • A prescribed electric current density boundary condition can be used with:
  • analysis typeapplicable
    Frequency responseYes
    StationaryYes
  • ElectricCurrentDensityValue evaluates to a NeumannValue.
  • The boundary predicate pred can be specified as in NeumannValue.
  • If the ElectricCurrentDensityValue depends on parameters that are specified in the association pars as …,keypi…,pivi,…], the parameters are replaced with .
