Ansys Maxwell simulation taking too long

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a user experiencing slow progress in Ansys Maxwell simulations, specifically when trying to obtain inductance results for a copper coil. Participants emphasize the need for more detailed information to provide effective assistance, warning that vague questions may lead to thread closure. The user is advised to check warning or error messages in the message manager, which could be impacting simulation performance. The importance of clear communication in seeking help is highlighted, as it facilitates better responses. Providing sufficient context is crucial for resolving technical issues efficiently.

simulation doesn't seem to be progressing. always stuck at this stage, see progress bar.

any ideas how to solve? thanks!

(btw I am trying to simulate it to get results of inductance for the copper coil)

What exact problem are you solving? We cannot see the screen clearly enough to help.
When you ask a question devoid of information that we need to help, then one or more of these happens:
1. You get lots of questions, the answers for which could have been posted at the start.
2. The post is ignored for a long time
3. Somebody complains to the mentors about a bad question, we try to fix the question with #1 or #4
This thread, right at this point, is close enough to useless to warrant being closed, FYI. I am trying #1 right now. You can guess what happens next if things do not improve.
4. Question is too vague to ever be answered, thread gets closed. Everyone loses.
5. You get humor like the wugga-wugga joke.
6. You actually provide enough information to help answer your problem. Everyone wins! Because are here to help. You came here for help.

Right off the bat I see two warning/error messages in your message manager. try looking into those.

Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?
While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...
I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
