Assigning a Volume Charge Density Excitation for an Electrostatic Solver
This type of excitation defines the volume charge density on an object.
To define the charge density on a 3D object:
- Select the 3D section of the geometry on which you want to apply the excitation.
- Click Maxwell > Excitations > Assign > Volume
Charge Density.
The Volume Charge Density Excitation window appears. - Enter a name for the excitation in the Name box, or accept the default.
- In the Parameters section, enter the charge density in the Value box.
- In the Parameters section, select the type of coordinate system from the Coordinate System drop-down menu.
- Optionally, click Use Defaults to revert to the default values in the window.
- Click OK to assign the excitation to the selected object.
