Re: Capacitance matrix calculation

Hi Peter, I managed to get my attempt at the problem with the two balls to work correctly by producing a body in freecad by cutting out the volumes inside the larger enclosing surface and then meshing using gmsh; the potential from the inner spheres look believeable and the results are similar to th...

Re: Capacitance matrix calculation

Hi Peter, Thank you very much for your prompt reply! As far as I understand it now, there is one body which is the air - all the space between the boundaries created by the shapes within the larger shape. That means that when I create the freecad .step file, I should not add objects inside a larger ...

Capacitance matrix calculation

Hello everyone, Apologies in advance if what I'm about to ask has been asked before and if this post would be more suitable in another category. What I'm trying to do: Ultimately, I'd like to use Elmer to calculate the capacitance matrix for 17 electrodes within an ionisation chamber. I've attached ...
