Step 2 – Set boundary conditions and create link
Set Boundary Conditions where current enters and leaves model and
convection occurs
1. Main Menu – BC’s – Point Source
Enter point (.8, 3.6, .0178)
Source Type Current and Value = 50
Apply
Enter point (.8, .6, .0178)
Source Type Current and Value -50
Apply
2.
Main Menu – BC’s –Convection – Define BC
Left Point (0, 0, 0); Right
Point (6, 4, 0)
Parameters Constant, h = 15
Apply
Left Point (0, 0, .09); Right
Point (6, 4, .09)
Parameters Constant, h = 15
Apply
Create a link between the 2 traces which transfers current from one point
in the model to another, without running through the board.
3. Main
Menu – Geometry – Element Links
Point to Point: Left Point (5.6, 3.5, .0175); Right
Point (5.6, .5, .0175)
Connection Type = Electrical
Resistance = .00001
Apply
