The Incident Pressure Field node is a subnode to all nonreflecting boundary conditions (plane, cylindrical, or spherical wave radiation). From the
Physics toolbar, add to
Plane Wave Radiation,
Spherical Wave Radiation, or
Cylindrical Wave Radiation nodes. If the incident pressure field
pi is a predefined plane wave, it is of the type:
where p0 is the wave amplitude,
k is the wave vector (with amplitude
keq=|k| and wave direction vector
ek), and
r is the location on the boundary. The incident pressure field can also be a user-defined value or expression.
From the Incident pressure field type list, select
Plane wave to define an incident pressure field of plane wave type. Then enter a
Pressure amplitude p0 (SI unit: Pa) (the default is 0 Pa) and
Wave direction ek (SI unit: m).
Select User defined to enter the expression for the
Incident pressure field pi (SI unit: Pa) as a function of space. The default is
0 Pa.
