EMfieldEnergy

EMfieldEnergy

Works with VSimEM, VSimPD, and VSimVE licenses.

Indicates Vorpal should calculate the total energy of the electromagnetic fields listed in the fields parameter in the special case where a GridBoundary is present. The fields in cut cells created by the GridBoundary are given special treatment to provide a more accurate result.

EMfieldEnergy Parameters

fields (string vector, required)

Indicates the fields for a History kind that reports data for a multiple fields. For this history there should be exactly two fields where the first is the electric field and the second is the magnetic field.

gridBoundary (string, required)

The GridBoundary used in the energy calculation.

EMfieldEnergy History Example

<History storedEnergy>
  kind = EMfieldEnergy
  fields = [multiField.elecField multiField.magField]
  gridBoundary = cylindricalCav
</History>
