  Hi,
  
  I want to model the grounding system of transmission towers in soil in frequency domain. As a starting point, to validate my method, I want to calculate the low frequency impedance of two series cylinder using lumped port in HFSS. Unfortunately I am not getting the right answer. I would appreciate if anyone can help me. Below you can find the picture of what I have modeled.
  
  * An outer cone, to model the ground and close the current loop.
  
  * A perfect_E sheet below the cylinders to model a wire with high conductivity.
