Electrostatic Current and Voltage
Electrostatic current and voltage analysis predicts the outcome when an electric potential is applied to a conductive material, which results in a voltage and current distribution over the surface or throughout the volume of an object and its surroundings. This enables engineers to study an assembly’s electric conduction properties.
The input consists of electrical conductivity, voltage at boundaries and current loadings. The output consists of voltage at nodes, current flux density (vectors) at element centroids and current flow through element faces.
