How to include a capacitor to an Ansoft Maxwell 3D eddy current design

AI Thread Summary
Incorporating a capacitor into an Ansoft Maxwell 3D eddy current design is not directly possible using the eddy current solver; instead, users should utilize the transient solver alongside the Maxwell circuit editor. A user seeking to analyze the B field distribution of a resonance loop with a series capacitor followed the manual's guidance but encountered issues with the B field distribution not being available. Assistance was requested to identify potential mistakes in the setup. The discussion emphasizes the need for proper integration of both tools to achieve the desired analysis. Effective collaboration and sharing of resources, such as tutorials, were also highlighted as beneficial for users facing similar challenges.

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 adress. 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!

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
