Cuboid

Flux tube with rectangular cross-section; fixed shape; linear or non-linear material characteristics

Description

The Cuboid component models a flux tube with a rectangular cross-section.

If the boolean parameter Nonlinear Permeability is true, the component uses a material parameter to specify the Soft Magnetic Material. A record of that class, with the appropriate name, must exist in the model, either at the same or higher level.

The Use default material boolean parameter, when true, sets the name of the material parameter to SoftMaterial1, which corresponds to the default name assigned to a record of the appropriate class.  To use a different name, uncheck the box and enter the name in the parameter that appears.
