Multiscale Modeling of Capacitive and Resistive Devices
Duration: 44:13
Learn how to model capacitive and resistive devices using a multiscale approach in this archived webinar. The presentation features a resistor-capacitor (RC) network model. The capacitor is modeled in space while the power supply and resistor are coupled through the Electrical Circuit interface. Using this multiscale approach, we not only visualize the electric field around the capacitor but also investigate its dynamic charging response. You will also learn about when and how to couple electrical circuits to 2D and 3D space-dependent models using the AC/DC Module, an add-on to COMSOL Multiphysics®.
Tip: Learn more about the features and functionality available with the AC/DC Module here.
