 24 Mar 2008 5:47 [CST] Why can't i simulate SRR structure with CST? |
|
|
|
I tried to use CST to simulation a simple SRR structure in GHz. The scale followes the data from fig1 in ref.<Electromagnetic behaviour of left-handed materials>. But when the simulation begins, it always been aborted automatelly with the error:
the current settings will probably lead to a very long simulation time
you may improve the simulation speed by:
1. checking the frequency range and units settings
2. extending the simulation frequency range
3. checking the mesh to avoid very small mesh steps
error during construction of pre-conditioner. Not enough memory
I don't know what's the problem. Anyone could tell me ? Thx.
the attachment is the folder of the save results in RAR file.

First of all can u please upload the Fig from what u r simulating he book.
There are many potential errors in your simulation.
1)port 1 -50mm away from your structure
2) boundary condition are not right
3) the structure is neither coplanar fed nor microstip type.
4) There is no ground plane.
In addition u want to excite the structure plane wave or simple waveguide

Thx for your attention. The reference is not a book but a literature. I uploaded it in the new attachment.

Hi snkhan
1) the port's position is determined by the open (add space) boundary condition in the X axis. I know it is strange but don't know how to change it and what's the effect of the changing.
2) I don't understand the boundary condition very well. what i only know is that the wave vector should be along the x axis and the H component should penetrate the rings. Actually the SRRs structure should periodic arranged in the YZ plane. But I heard that under the boundary condition I settled the result should equal to the periodic array. I even try to use periodic condition but the error code occurs again :
waveguide port 1 touches periodic boundary! This is not supported by transient solver. pleasechange port definition or boundary condition.
because I 'm not a guy major in microwave i don't quite understand your last two replies. Could you please give me a detailed explanation?
THx and waiting for your reply again.

Hi snkhan,
I have thought about your design but I have some questions not quite clear:
1) if my structrue is an array of SRR, does your boundary condition works for my design? How to use the periodic or unit cell boundary condition for a simple model?
2) why did you divide the whole SRR line in two components?
3) there is a big cuboid contains both the components , what's its function?
Thanks & waiting for your reply.

@Smithjim
1) Boundry condition depends strucuture but in my opinion in this case open space if better however u want to reduce the time then u can use the default setting using the coplanar templete in CST
2) My stuructre was re-simulation of a paper, Anyhow its because to enhance the band rejction offered by SSRR
3) i didnot understand what u mean ^.^

smithjim,try use WGA method,it sooooooooooo easy in srr reflection phase figure plotting

Thanks for snkhan's advice. I have a problem like smithjim. I think that in snkhan's model is a co planar srr, but i want to simulate the mtm structure (periodic structure, because mtm will show negative mue and eps in the periodic structure) for check it properties. Could you give me a suggestion and an example in CST?
Thanks,
