Der Full Wave Solver berücksichtigt alle Terme der Maxwellschen Gleichungen. Dadurch kann die Wellenlänge kleiner sein als die Abmessungen des untersuchten Teils und es sind sogar sehr hohe Frequenzen möglich. Im Frequenzbereich ergeben sich die elektrischen und magnetischen Felder aufgrund der Anregungsfrequenzen.

Theory and Basics

Formulations

The basis equations:
(1)        rot h = j + δ_t d
(2)        rot e = -δ_t b
(3)        div b = 0

Constitutive relations:
(4)        b = µ h
(5)        d = ε e
(6)        j = σ e

The following a-v-formulation is used for 3D

Electric-field formulation

In case of wave guide solutions the solver uses the e-field formulation

(10)        rot rot e + σ µ δ_t e + ε µ δ²_t e = 0

The equation can be solved in the time or frequency domain.

Basic Example: Waveguide Loaded Cavity

The statement of this Team Workshop Problem 18 is to find the resonant frequency and other results of a square-shaped TE101 cavity coupled to a rectangular waveguide through a centered symmetrical inductive iris. All walls are perfectly conducting.

a = 22,86 mm
d = 2*a/8
L = 26,86 mm
t = a/32

The analysis is done in 2D and 3D. The pictures demonstrate these two meshes.

2D mesh with 2744 tri elements.

3D mesh with 38151 tetrahedral elements.
