Electrical: Electric Conductivity

Isotropic


Input Data	Description
Electrical conductivity	Isotropic electrical conductivity, $σ$ . When specified, the material exhibits no directional dependency for electrical conductivity.
Use frequency-dependent data	Specify material parameters that depend on frequency (cycles/time). A Frequency field appears in the data table.
Use temperature-dependent data	Specify material parameters that depend on temperature. A Temperature field appears in the data table.
Number of field variables	Specifies material parameters that depend on one or more independent field variables. A Field column appears in the data table.


Input Data	Description
K1, K2, and K3	When orthotropic electrical conductivity is specified, the material exhibits directional dependency only in the principal directions. The three values of electric conductivity are $σ_{11}$ , $σ_{22}$ , and $σ_{33}$ .
