Thermionic emission

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi ,

I am trying to simulate a thermionic cathode using Comsol 4.0a.
I can set up secondary emission but I can't find a way of setting up thermionic emission.
When I set up a wall boundary condition the drop down menu where "Thermionic Emission" should be selected from is grayed out and whatever I do it does not change.

Thanks

Michele
