Electric Currents, Single Layer Shell Equations in Steady State
In the static study type, the physics interface solves the following equation where
d
is the thickness (SI unit: m) of the shell:
σ
is the electrical conductivity (SI unit: S/m),
J
e
is an
externally generated current density
(SI unit: A/m
2
), and
Q
j
is an external current source (SI unit: A/m
3
). The operator
∇
t
represents the tangential derivative along the shell.
