Results for LCGen seem to change when I use a number of smaller 3D rectangles to replace larger rectangles in the same structure. Why?
LCGen does not include resistance effects, so that the resulting inductance solution corresponds to one made from perfect conductors (it can be thought of as associated with the high-frequency current distribution). A structure that has only a single rectangle in a cross-section will have a uniform current associated with it, and a cross-section with multiple rectangles will have a uniform current over each rectangle but a distribution over rectangles that is consistent with skin-effect behavior. In other words, the current distribution over any given rectangular solid is uniform (across a 2D shape or through a 3D shape) but has an overall distribution that satisfies the appropriate boundary conditions.
