Impedance, Interior Impedance, and Pair Impedance
Use the Impedance, Interior Impedance, or Pair Impedance node in time-harmonic analysis to define the input impedance of an external domain, at an interior boundary, or at the boundary between parts in an assembly as the ratio of pressure (or pressure drop) to normal velocity, Zi = p/(n · v) at the boundary. The associated impedance boundary condition is
On pair (interior) impedance conditions the up/down, that refers to the up and down side of an interior boundary, is replaced by a 1 and 2 index in the equation display. These refer to the two faces in the pair.
