Magnetic Point Dipole
Add a Magnetic Point Dipole to 3D and 2D models. The point dipole source represents a small circular current loop I in the limit of zero loop area a at a fixed product Ia.
Dipole Specification
Select a Dipole specification — Magnitude and direction or Dipole moment.
Dipole Parameters
Based on the Dipole specification selection:
•
For Magnitude and direction enter coordinates for the Magnetic dipole moment direction nm and Magnetic dipole moment, magnitude m (SI unit: m2·A).
•
For Dipole moment enter coordinates for the Magnetic dipole moment m (SI unit: m2·A).
For 2D and 2D Axisymmetry, the Magnetic Point Dipole node is only available when the Electric field components solved for is set to Three-component vector and Out-of-plane vector. For 2D, the Out-of-plane wave number should be 0. For 2D Axisymmetry, the Azimuthal mode number should be 0.
