# 7.17.1.21.10. Electrode_Object

Syntax

  Source For Energy ([{of} SpeciesName] | [{in} MaterialPhaseName] | [{ls} {a | b | c}]) {@ | at | for | on | over} MeshPartIdentifier = Electrode_Object ([Power_Output = power_output] | [Toggle = toggle])

Summary

  Electrode object source for energy equation to be used in some battery models.

Description

  Uses the Zuzax library to evaluate electrochemical reactions within each element and compute source terms.

  The following options are present in most boundary conditions/sources. The meaning of each option is as follows:

  Power_Output

    If specified, the total (integrated) power of the given BC/Src is calculated and stored into the global variable name specified as the power_output argument.

  Toggle

    If given, specifies which toggle block controls whether this BC is active or not.
