ElectricSymmetryValue

represents an electric symmetry boundary condition for PDEs with predicate pred indicating where it applies, with model variables vars and global parameters pars.
represents an electric symmetry boundary condition with local parameters specified in pars[lkey].
Details



- ElectricSymmetryValue specifies a symmetry boundary condition for ElectrostaticPDEComponent and ElectricCurrentPDEComponent.
- ElectricSymmetryValue specifies a boundary condition for ElectrostaticPDEComponent and ElectricCurrentPDEComponent, and is used as part of the modeling equation:
- ElectricSymmetryValue is typically used to model a boundary with mirror symmetry along an axis.
- ElectricSymmetryValue models a boundary with mirror symmetry with dependent variable
, independent variables
and time variable
.
- Stationary variables vars are vars={V[x1,…,xn],{x1,…,xn}}.
- Frequency-dependent variables vars are vars={V[x1,…,xn],ω,{x1,…,xn}}.
- The polarized form of ElectrostaticPDEComponent with vacuum permittivity
in units of [
], polarization vector
in units of [
] and volume charge density
in units of [
] is given by:
- ElectricSymmetryValue with boundary unit normal
models:
- Model parameters pars as specified for ElectrostaticPDEComponent.
- The general stationary electric current model ElectricCurrentPDEComponent with electrical conductivity
in units of [
, an externally generated current density vector
in units of [
] and current source
in units of [
] is given by:
- ElectricSymmetryValue with boundary unit normal
models:
- Model parameters pars are specified as for ElectrostaticPDEComponent or ElectricCurrentPDEComponent.
- ElectricSymmetryValue is effectively the same as ElectricFluxDensityValue with an electric flux of 0.
- ElectricSymmetryValue is effectively the same as ElectricCurrentDensityValue with a normal current density of 0.
- The boundary predicate pred can be specified as in NeumannValue.
- If the ElectricSymmetryValue depends on parameters
that are specified in the association pars as …,keypi…,pivi,…], the parameters
are replaced with
.
