How could I speed up the solving of Flux project with solid conductors and non linear materials?

In the case of solid conductors and non linear material, the convergence of the non linear system could take long time. A possible way to speed up the solving process is presented below :

1Solve the project with linear materials only by respecting the condition: µr_linear material >= µr_non linear material
2

Replace the linear material by the non linear one without deleting the results. For that you have to execute one of the macros ChangeMaterial available in
C:\Altair\Extensions\Macros\ 

  • RegLin_ChangeMater.PFM (change material on line region)
  • RegSurf_ChangeMater.PFM (change material on face region)
  • RegVol_ChangeMater.PFM (change material on volume region)
3Iterate the solving process. From menu Solving click on Continue the solving process and select Iterate on one step of a scenario
