Hello,

 

I am using FEKO 2017.2.

 

I am getting the following error when trying to union my model together: 

 

Error 16504: The geometry modeller encountered a problem.
Contact support with a description of what you were doing,
sending the model file (if possible), and the log file that was written to
C:\Users\bouvy\AppData\Roaming\feko\2017.2_f7bc1b75\logs\CADFEKO.PROBLEM.LOG

 

I've attached the model file as well as the log file specified above. Can you please help? 

 

Thank you,

Alex

    It seems the modeller has a problem with the thin cylinders.

     

    Consider replacing the cylinders with wires. The cylinders are very thin and wires would most likely still be a good representation at the frequencies in question.

     

    Else, try putting a small gap, say lambda/20 at the highest frequency, between the cylinders and the connection points to the box. In the gaps then use wires.
