The Stability and the Computed Speed of Boundary Element Numerical Method for Electric Field Intensity Generated by Oblique Hundred-Needle Electrodes

Abstract:

According to the electric field intensity of oblique hundred-needle electrodes (OHNE), the discrete equations based on the indetermination linear current density were established by the boundary element integral equations (BEIE) The non-uniform distribution of the current flowing from hundred-needle electrodes was imaged by solving a set of linear equations. Then, the electric field intensity generated by OHNE at any point can be determined through the boundary element method (BEM). The time of program running and stability of computing method are examined by an example. It demonstrates that the algorithm possesses a quick speed and the steady computed results. It means that this method has an important referenced significance for computing the potential generated by OHNE, which is a fast, effective and accurate computing method.
