Hello everybody. I have found calculators that calculate the min trace width for a certain current that goes through the trace. What I was wondering is how do you calculate how much current can circulate in a copper area. I think I can explain my question better with an image.
I attached an image which has a copper area(black) and 2 holes. Current flows from one hole to another. How much current can travel between the 2, since the copper area dissipates heat it can't be analyzed as a trace with the calculators.
