Search Coil not giving response

Alex G

Hi,

I'm trying to make a model to reflect a real life test rig, which is in essence an epstein frame. I've added non meshed coils for the primary (drive) windings and the secondary (search) windings.

For the secondary winding I have modelled a stranded coil conductor with imposed current of 0A, like I saw in one of the tutorials. However this is not giving any response when I run my simulation. Why not? 

I am also using 2 symmetry planes. Can anyone confirm if non meshed coils are also included in the symmetry?

Is there any easier way to measure average flux density in my core material? I am trying to obtain a Flux Density of 1T at varying frequencies, at the moment I can only obtain this by trial and error, manipulating the current for each frequency value.

 

The person who supports me with this is not contactable due to corona so I have no one else to work with who knows the software.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Alex

Hi there,

All the domains need to be covered by the mesh in order for the solver to work properly; I can help you better if you share a screenshot of the application if possible.
