PEC

For PEC materials, all interior electric fields are zero. In many cases, highly conductive metals such as silver, copper, aluminum, and iron, can be modeled as perfectly conducting.

In the case of coincident or overlapping materials, materials are assigned the following priority:

Material Priority
Instructions
  1. ClickMaterial Image 16 color Materials within the Definitions section under the EMA3D tab in the ribbon. Then selectPECImage 16 PEC.

  2. PEC 1
  3. Use the appropriate selection tool (bodySelect Body Image 16 , surfaceSelect Surface Image 16 , or lineSelect Line Image 16 ) to assign the PEC material. To assign material properties, either select the geometric entity in the model window or in the Structure Tree.

  4. PEC 2
  5. Click OKCheck Image 16 to complete the definition.

  6. Adjust the definitions of the PEC material at any time by right clicking it within the Simulation Tree and selecting Edit from the pop-up menu.

  7. PEC 3
