Figure 6: Detailed view of a mesh section. ElectronDiode.MOU : the main output file specifying element identity (region association) and coordinates of nodes (boundaries between elements). This file may be ported to any of the TriComp solution programs. The file is in text format, so you can inspect it with an editor. Next, run EStat from FPController . Choose File/Edit script (EIN) and pick the file ElectronDiode.EIN .
The editor shows the content * File ElectronDiode.EIN DUnit = 39.37 Geometry = Cylin Epsi(1) = 1.0 Epsi(2) = 81.0 Epsi(3) = 2.7 Potential(4) = -500.0E3 Potential(5) = 0.0E3 Potential(6) = 0.0E3 ENDFILE The two general commands at the top specify that the dimensions from the Mesh file should be interpreted in inches and that the system has cylindrical symmetry. The other commands with indices set the physical properties of regions of the solution volume. The first three regions are dielectrics (vacuum, purified water and cast epoxy) and the other regions are fixed-potential electrodes.
Again, there are two options for creating EStat input scripts supplying values in an interactive dialog or direct input with a text editor. The tools labeled 1, 2 and 3 invoke the three main functions of EStat : 10
