Calculating Components of Lorentz Force

EM_FAQ: Calculate components of the Lorentz force.

Assume a distribution of magnetic field surrounding conductors with applied DC currents. The calculation of the components of the Lorentz force has the following steps in the field calculator.

- Quantity -> J

- Quantity -> B

- Cross

- Scalar -> ScalarX

- Geom -> Volume … (specify the volume of interest) OK

- ∫

- Eval

The above example shows the process for calculating the X component of the Lorentz force. Similar steps should be performed for all components of interest.
