Re: Simulation of current carrying conductor or a coil in ANSYS fluent

Hello,
I am working on some problems on MHD. As a starting point, I have been suggested to find magnetic field around a current carrying coil or conductor.
1. I thought of writing UDS for the magnetic field (which is similar to the magnetic induction equation given in MHD manual). Also, since there is no fluid flow, I thought of making the viscosity of the surrounding region high.
2. I am however stuck in the boundary conditions. How can i apply the current (or current density) as inlet?Could someone clarify?
3. Regarding modelling, should i first make the coil and use the enclosure option in design modeller and mesh?

I would be grateful if anyone could suggest some pointers on how I should proceed?
Thank you.

Regards,
Yash Ganatra
