Periodic condition, symmetry, 3D, cylinder

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi everybody,

I model a cylindrical resistance. Two physics are used.
1. Electric Currents
2. Electric circuit
The coupling of the two physics works.
The total current in this scenario is I_total = 48.69 A

I would like to take advantage of the symmetry of the body.
Now I only use 1/4 of the body to produce the same result.
The Periodic condition is now used. However, it does not work.

The total current in the second scenario is I_total = 50,003 A

I have attached model and hope someone can help me.

Best regards
Dejan
