Defining a BH loop in Ansys Maxwell?

Click For Summary
In Ansys Maxwell, inserting a BH loop requires specific conditions to avoid errors, including ensuring that the BH curve in material properties does not exceed one quadrant and does not include hysteresis data. The initial value of B must be set to 0, and the slope at any point should not be less than the permeability of free space (u0). Hysteresis effects are typically handled in the core loss model rather than in the relative permeability section. Users should clarify whether the hysteresis model provides only loss calculations or if it also accounts for the full magnetic impact. Properly defining the BH loop is crucial for accurate simulations in Ansys Maxwell.

Does anyone have an idea how to insert a BH loop like the one I have attached in Ansys Maxwell and not get an error like in the other picture which is also attached?

I have seen it multiple times in different texts but can't define one myself without getting this annoying error.
Also the data that I have inserted does not start from (0,0) but don't worry about that because the error would show up either way.
any experience with this?

Those are in two different locations, BH curve in material properties (relative permeability) cannot contain more than one quadrant and no hysteresis data, initial value of B must be 0, slope at any point must not be less than u0 etc.

(Caveat have not used this) But my understanding is Maxwell handles the hysteresis effect in the core loss model for a material, and that is where you stick in that hysteresis loop data, not in the relative permeability section. I'm not sure if this is literally just a loss model and only gives you Watts or if it would calculate the full magnetic impact of the hysteresis.
 
Thread 'I thought it was only Amazon that sold unsafe junk'
I grabbed an under cabinet LED light today at a big box store. Nothing special. 18 inches in length and made to plug several lights together. Here is a pic of the power cord: The drawing on the box led me to believe that it would accept a standard IEC cord which surprised me. But it's a variation of it. I didn't try it, but I would assume you could plug a standard IEC cord into this and have a double male cord AKA suicide cord. And to boot, it's likely going to reverse the hot and...
