    Simulating Parallel Plate Capacitor in HFSS

    Tallface65, Thank you for the reply. I have taken your comments into consideration and changed the meshing of my model to improve the accuracy of the simulation. I was previously unaware of the ability to change the meshing. Also, HFSSv13 works fine as that is the version I am using

    Simulating Parallel Plate Capacitor in HFSS

    They are 2D sheets that are perfect electric conductors

    Simulating Parallel Plate Capacitor in HFSS

    Thank You for all the responses. I was also wondering how to determine the best solution frequency to use. I created a very broad frequency sweep to see how what happens as freq increases (10k - 20M). I found that I get results that are pretty close(1.4% off) to my calculated at around...

    Simulating Parallel Plate Capacitor in HFSS

    Hi, I am trying to create a very basic simulation of a parallel plate capacitor to make sure I understand how to use HFSS. I created it with two 150mm x 150mm PEC sheets, .1mm distance between the plates, LumpPort excited at the center of the plates I don't know what the best frequency to...

    Stretching an Interdigitated Capacitor in HFSS?

    Hi, I'm trying to simulate strain on an interdigitated capacitor by stretching it along its longitudinal axis, and compressing by 1/4 of the strain on other axes. The trouble I'm having comes from the fact that I can't find a simple way to do this and have had to edit each piece of the...

    HFSS Move Mulitple United Objects Together

    Hi, I have several objects that I have united together and I want to be able to move them all together by some variable value. I defined a variable and set the position to be multiplied by this variable but only the main object of the unite command changes. Do I have to go into each object...

    How does HFSS calculate Z Parameters?

    Thanks for the reply. So, the Z11 parameter is found by sending a 1A current through the Lump Port, and calculating the the impedance of the port with a known voltage? I'm a little confused how it calculates V and Z.

    How does HFSS calculate Z Parameters?

    Hi, I am new to HFSS (a few weeks ago I was asked to learn it without any prior knowledge of it or antenna simulation), and I have a model of an Interdigitated Capacitor, which we are trying to find the capacitance of. I have a lump port across the two "digits" for an excitation and I recently...
