DC Conduction Solver

The electric conduction field simulator computes steady-state 2D or 3D electric fields in conductors due to

• current excitations.
• applied potentials.

The quantity for which the electric conduction field simulator solves is the electric potential, F; the electric field (E-field) and the current density (J-field) are automatically calculated from the potential. The resistance matrix, a derived quantity, may be calculated from these basic field quantities. As an additional option, perfect insulators, that is, non-conduction regions, surrounding the conductors can also be added to the simulation domain allowing to calculate the electric field everywhere including the insulators.
