Description

Overwrites vacuum permitivity in Elmer electrostatic and magnetodynamic analyses with a custom value.

Usage

To create a new ConstantVacuumPermittivity object do the following:
- Select the menu Model → Overwrite Constants → Constant vacuum permittivity.
To edit an existing ConstantVacuumPermittivity object:
- Select it in the Tree view.
Specify a non-default vacuum permittivity value (in F/m).
