Modeling in COMSOL Multiphysics<br />

This model uses the <strong>RF</strong> Module’s Port boundary condition for the wave propagation<br />

problem. With this boundary condition, the S-parameters are calculated automatically.<br />

The mode of the incoming wave is specified.<br />

Modeling Using the Graphical User Interface<br />

The model is set up in two steps: first the wave propagation problem is solved, then<br />

the heat transfer problem is solved.<br />
