AC conduction simulation with QuickField
Webinar recorded on June 20, 2023
AC conduction module of QuickField FEA software can be used to analyze the electric field caused by time-harmonic voltages and currents on the region boundaries. The dielectric media is assumed to be non-ideal with a small but non-zero electric conductivity.
Generally the quantities of interest in AC Conduction analysis are voltages, active and reactive currents, electric fields, Joule losses, capacitances, and electric forces. It can be used to design variety of conductive systems such as capacitors, insulation systems cables, and in other technical applications.
