surface charge density

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

hi,

I have placed a water drop between two electrodes and got the results, now I want to plot the charge density in my domain. there is nothing for charge in default parameters of the electrostatic (es) plot groups.

what does this mean ? How can I plot it ?

I just applied two voltage boudary condition in my problem.


best

I would also love to be able to plot charge density in my results, anyone know how?

hi
in ES (electrostatic) module, Polarization is the charge density and it is available in post processing

HI

but in ES Electro-static charge density isn't it "es.D" ?

or are you in EC electric currents, with air and water conductivity and looking for "ec.rhoq" ?

Good luck

I think D is the Displacement vector not the charge density. In EC there is charge density in post processing but in ES, I could not find anything beside Polarization.

Hi

I fully agree D is the displacement, still units C/m^2

Good luck
