Calculation of insulator field using finite and infinite elements
Abstract
The paper describes a numerical procedure for calculating the potential field of an axisymmetric insulator. The insulator and the surrounding space are divided into finite elements, and the unbounded space into mirrored infinite elements that are easily combined with the finite elements. The accuracy of the model was checked with an example calculation that has a known analytical solution.
