Ansys Maxwell - Coordinate System Limitations

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the limitations of coordinate systems (CS) in Ansys Maxwell, specifically the restriction of defining only 255 CS for permanent magnet (PM) simulations. Users encountered issues when attempting to assign additional CS beyond this limit. The solution identified involves upgrading to newer versions of the ANSYS Electronics Suite, which resolves these limitations and enhances modeling capabilities.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of coordinate systems in simulation software
  • Familiarity with Ansys Maxwell and its functionalities

  • Explore best practices for modeling permanent magnets in Ansys Maxwell
  • Learn about coordinate system management in simulation software
  • Investigate version upgrade processes for ANSYS products
USEFUL FOR

Engineers and simulation specialists working with Ansys Maxwell, particularly those involved in modeling permanent magnets and seeking to overcome coordinate system limitations.

Hi everybody, I encountered a problem simulation of permanent magnets (PM) in Ansys Maxwell. There are many PM in my simulation and I need to define for each of them a proper coordinate system (CS). But I could only defined 255 CS. After that I can create new CS but It won't be possible to assign it to the PM. Is there any limitation on defining more than 255 CS?

Actually I was able to solve the problem. Older versions have limitations. The problem will be solved by modeling in new versions.
ANSYS Electronics Suite instead of Ansoft Maxwell!
