Hi experts,
I wonder anyone of you have an idea on whether we can include a discrete component (specifically a capacitor) into an "Ansoft Maxwell 3D" eddy current design. Little more description: I do have a specific eddy current design with a coils. I need to add a series capacitor and analyze the fields.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
In eddy current solver there is no such a possibility. To do this, use transient solver and maxwell cicruit editor.
 
Hi gerbi,
Thanks for the prompt response. I will try on that path.. further, if you have any help doc explains working with both (Ansoft Maxwell & Circuit editor) together can you pls share with me.
Thanks

Send me a PM with your email address. I have some Maxwell tutorials.

Thanks. PM Sent.
 
Hi,

I followed similar steps in the manual using transient solution along with Maxwell circuit editor. My target is to achieve B field distribution of a resonance loop with a series capacitor. (circuit and model is attached.)

My issue is B field distribution is not available with my design.
Can you please advice me where did I do wrong.

Thank you very much!
