Corrugated#

class ansys.aedt.toolkits.antenna.backend.antenna_models.horn.Corrugated(*args, **kwargs)[source]#

Manages a corrugated horn antenna.

This class is accessible through the app hfss object [1].

Parameters:
frequencyfloat, optional

Center frequency. The default is 10.0.

frequency_unitstr, optional

Frequency units. The default is "GHz".

materialstr, optional

Horn material. If a material is not defined, a new material, parametrized, is defined. The default is "pec".

outer_boundarystr, optional

Boundary type to use. The default is None. Options are "FEBI", "PML", "Radiation", and None.

length_unitstr, optional

Length units. The default is "mm".

parametrizedbool, optional

Whether to create a parametrized antenna. The default is True.

Returns:
aedt.toolkits.antenna.CorrugatedHorn

Corrugated horn object.

Examples

>>> from ansys.aedt.toolkits.antenna.backend.antenna_models.horn import Corrugated
>>> import ansys.aedt.core
>>> app = ansys.aedt.core.Hfss()
>>> oantenna1 = Corrugated(app)
>>> oantenna1.frequency = 12.0
>>> oantenna1.model_hfss()
>>> oantenna1.setup_hfss()
>>> app.release_desktop(False, False)
