Boundary Conditions - Boundary Potentials

Simulation: Settings Boundaries Boundary Potentials

A boundary potential can be assigned only if the corresponding boundary condition in the "Boundaries" tab is set to "normal" or "electric".

Xmin, Ymin, Zmin, Xmax, Ymax, Zmax

Defines the boundary potential at the specific boundary. Three different settings are possible:

Default

Zero potential is assigned to the boundary.

Fixed

A defined constant potential will be assigned to the boundary.

Floating

Similar to Fixed the boundary will also have a constant potential. However its initial value is unknown and will be calculated during the simulation.

OK

Accepts the changes and closes the dialog.

Cancel

Closes this dialog box without performing any further action.
