conductivity definition in Joule heating model

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi, helper,

I am calculating the Joule heating inside some special material whose electrical conductivity can be expressed by an analytic function on temperature but different from the given linear function in COMSOL. So, in this case, how to apply this functio into my Joule heating calculation?

Actually, there are two options to define this quantity, one is using the given linear funciton and define the coeffeicients, the other is to define a constant conductivity. Neither one is applicable to my case. So, could you indicate me how to do the calculation in COMSOL?

Thanks in advance
