how to model fields in space

Post by bryonneufeld »

Hi,

I have a problem in which there is a dielectric material with some electric charge distribution.

I would like to know how to evaluate the electric field in the region outside of the dielectric material, that is, in the vacuum surrounding the dielectric.

Any ideas? I have tried to do this by meshing the region around the dielectric and assigning it vacuum properties, but I'm not sure it's working correctly.

Thanks!

Hi,

why do you think it is not working correctly? How do you proceed? Could you post your sif file?
