How to evaluate the inception and breakdown voltage in Maxwell?

    • FAQFAQ
      Participant

      In Maxwell electrostatic solver, a new feature calculates the breakdown voltage, which a corona discharge will occur. The user may select the seed locations and the dielectric gas type for further computation. Field line trace overlays allow user to plot E field lines in 3D space and on insulator surfaces, you can invoke the Inception Voltage Evaluation dialog after a field line trace plot has been created.
