Benet Improvements Made on Los Alamos Electromagnetic Field Code

Abstract

'EMFLD-N' is a self-diagnostic program that computes electromagnetic properties for general two-dimensional cross-sectional geometries. The algorithm presumes the electrical potential to be a tempered Dirac delta function; the prespecified current flows only on the surfaces of the geometric bodies. For each cross section, the code calculates the distribution of the current density and Lorentz pressure about the perimeter, and finds the impedance and resultant force vector per unit length.
