Ansoft Maxwell 3d Closely coupled inductor

In summary, the speaker is experiencing difficulty in creating graphs related to inductance and induced voltage. They have a circuit with a 28Vac source, 2 coils with a resistance of 18.6ohm each, and a core in the center that can move to change the induced voltage and inductance. The speaker knows from experience and hand calculations that the coil will have 100mH from top to bottom when taken from input of coil 2 and output of coil 1, and 50mH on each when the core is centered. They are seeking help with their ansoft file, which they were unable to share due to its size. They apologize for any confusion in their quick explanation and hope someone else can

Hello! I am having an issue with getting any graphs on inductance or induced voltage.

In the attached circuit:
What I have is a 28Vac source w/ 400hz and 2 coils (R=18.6ohm each) that are connected with a common.

In the model:

I have a core in the center that will be able to move up changing the induced voltage and inductance when taken from the input of coil 1 and common or input of coil 2 and common. I know from experience (and hand calculations), that the coil will have 100mH from top to bottom when taken from input of coil 2 and output of coil 1 and with 50mH on each when the core is centered (obviously).

Any help will be appreciated,
(wrote this fast, sorry if it's hard to understand)

Thanks
