Default Contrary current flow within a radiator

( I am assuming that skin depthg is not limitless.)


of course it is limitless, it is an exponential function so it never
goes to zero. the so called 'skin depth' is only the point where the
current has dropped to 1/e or about 37% of the surface value, still a
significant current.


The plots at the link Frank provided show current going rather abruptly
to zero - even negative ("contrary"?) in some cases. I wouldn't presume
to know whether it is modeled correctly.
