Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around resolving band assignment issues encountered in 3D simulations using Ansoft Maxwell, specifically related to errors that occur during mesh mapping. Participants seek solutions and advice on how to address these errors in the context of simulating a tubular machine.

Discussion Character

  • Technical explanation, Debate/contested, Experimental/applied

Main Points Raised

  • One participant reports an error message related to mesh mapping on a band, indicating a potential problem with band settings.
  • Another participant expresses having the same error and seeks assistance.
  • A third participant also confirms experiencing the same issue and requests help.
  • One suggestion offered is to avoid using cylindrical or spherical bands, recommending instead the use of box or polyhedron shapes. This participant also advises ensuring that the band does not intersect with other objects and suggests matching the meshing of the band with the objects inside it.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the existence of the band assignment issue, but there are no clear solutions or consensus on how to resolve it, as multiple users report similar problems.

Contextual Notes

Participants have not specified the exact conditions or configurations that lead to the error, nor have they detailed the assumptions underlying their proposed solutions.

Hello all,

I am anew user for Ansoft Maxwell, I am doing simulation for tubular machine in 3D, I have problem with band assignment, when I run the analysis there is a massage error after the mesh, which said

[error] Error in mesh mapping on band, please check the potential problem in band setting.

I do not know how to sort this problem out. Could you please help me ? Thank you in advance
 
Did you manage to find a solution to your problem? I'm having the same error right now
 
I have the same problem...can anyone help?
 
Try not to use cylindrical or spherical band, better use a box or a polyhedron. If you have a rotational motion setup for the band, try to select "Non-Cylindrical". Try to make sure that the band does not intersect anything. Maybe also try to make the meshing of the band exactly the same as the meshing of the objects inside of it.
