Summary
| Description |
English: The lines (cyan) of the electric field in the dielectric of a transmission line are bent in accordance with Snell's law. The current (red arrows) is confined to the surface and skin depth region of the conductors. The Poynting vector (black) points axially in the dielectric (toward the load) and radially in the conductor (which is absorbed as heat). The angle psi is very small, hence the Poynting vector is nearly normal to the dielectric/conductor interface. |
