Variation Class
The Variation class allows for definition of a variation method typically used for physical property definition.
Variation Class Properties

xUnits | String | |
yUnits | String | |
material | String | Material for PCB Traces and Planes |
exponent | Number | Coverage Exponent for PCB Traces and Planes |
dielectricMaterial | String | Material for PCB Dielectric |
radiusUnits | String | Units of Radius values for Velocity Profile variation (internal fan material device) |
velocityUnits | String | Units of Velocity for Velocity Profile variation (internal fan material device) |
controlMethod | String | "TCold"; "THot"; "Voltage"; "Current"; "Power |
Variation Class Methods
| Variation Methods | Description | data return |
setValue(value) setValue(value, units) setValue(name, value) setValue(name, value, units) | sets the variation value value = number units = string name = string | no |
addPoint(x, y); | adds a point to a table variation x,y=number; | no |
addVelocity(radius, axial, swirl, radial) | Values to specify a velocity profile for internal fan | no |
setControlValue(value, units) | Control value for TEC (corresponds to controlMethod property) | no |
