Hi, I am trying to do a simulation for the current distribution in a cylindrical conductor wire using MAXWELL 3D. I used eddy current solver and assigned excitation of current 1A at both ends of the round wire. (I set length L=2mm, radius R=1mm) The field plot seems ok, having highest current density J near the surface of the wire, and lowest in the center. However, the total current calculated by integrate(J,cross-section) is NOT 1A for higher frequencies. Could someone tell me what was wrong in this simulation? Thank you!
