EM.Ferma features a 2D solution mode where the model is treated as a longitudinally infinite structure at a list of specified 2D planesSolution Planes. The 2D planes are defined by a Field Sensor definition that already exists in the project.

To explore EM.Ferma's 2D mode, right-click on "2D Solution Planes" in the navigation tree and select "2D Domain Settings...". In the 2D Static Domain dialog, enable the checkbox labeled "Treat Structure as Longitudinally Infinite across Each 2D Plane Specified Below". You are The user is then able to Add or Edit 2D solution plane Solution Plane definitions to the solution list.

To perform a transmission line Transmission Line simulation, check the first turn on Quasistatic simulation mode for a selected 2D planeSolution Plane, as shown in Figurethe figure at right... If an analysis is run with this option checked, the characteristic impedance (Z0) and Effective Epsilon will be computed for the transmission linecorresponding 2D Solution Plane. This output can be found in appropriately-named text files in the project directory upon completion of the simulation. Fields and potentials at the selected 2D plane will still be computed. Many 2D quasistatic solutions can be obtained in the same analysis, if for example, your design contains many types of transmission lines.
