Assign finite conductivity to one or more objects or faces of a given material.

Parameters:

assignmentstr or list: One or more objects or faces to assign finite conductivity to.
materialstr, optional: Material to use. The default is None.
conductivityfloat, optional: Conductivity. The default is 58000000. If no material is provided, a value must be supplied.
permittivityfloat, optional: Permittivity. The default is 1. If no material is provided, a value must be supplied.
use_thicknessbool, optional: Whether to use thickness. The default is False.
thicknessstr, optional: Thickness value if usethickness=True. The default is "0.1mm".
roughnessstr, optional: Roughness value with units. The default is "0um".
is_infinite_groundbool, optional: Whether the finite conductivity is an infinite ground. The default is False.
is_two_sidebool, optional: Whether the finite conductivity is two-sided. The default is False.
is_internalbool, optional: Whether the finite conductivity is internal. The default is True.
is_shell_elementbool, optional: Whether the finite conductivity is a shell element. The default is False.
use_huraybool, optional: Whether to use a Huray coefficient. The default is False.
radiusstr, optional: Radius value if usehuray=True. The default is "0.5um".
ratiostr, optional: Ratio value if usehuray=True. The default is "2.9".
namestr: Name of the boundary.

Returns:

ansys.aedt.core.modules.boundary.BoundaryObject: Boundary object.

Examples

Create two cylinders in the XY working plane and assign a copper coating of 0.2 mm to the inner cylinder and outer face.

>>> from ansys.aedt.core import Hfss
>>> hfss = Hfss()
>>> origin = hfss.modeler.Position(0, 0, 0)
>>> inner = hfss.modeler.create_cylinder(hfss.PLANE.XY,origin,3,200,0,"inner")
>>> outer = hfss.modeler.create_cylinder(hfss.PLANE.XY,origin,4,200,0,"outer")
>>> coat = hfss.assign_coating(["inner", outer.faces[2].id], "copper", use_thickness=True, thickness="0.2mm")
