EMfieldEnergy

EMfieldEnergy

Works with VSimEM, VSimPD, and VSimMD 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>
