Abstract

heat transfer problems of the Poisson and Laplace type have for years been solved by the finite element (FE) method. There exist many codes on the market today for solving such problems. A brief review of the analogy of heat transfer and electrostatic field equations is presented, followed by a more detailed discussion of the adaptation of current finite element heat transfer capabilities to the solution of two- and three- dimensional electrostatic field problems. An optimization module in the ANSYS® finite element program is also used to design a microstrip transmission line and optimize the design of a coaxial cable. All results show excellent agreement with analytical solutions.
