How to model the induced EMF in a coil in Ansys Maxwell

Hi guys,
I'm new to this forum. I'd like to know how I could perform a simulation to find the induced EMF in a coil placed closer to a current-carrying conductor. I'm not sure how I should model the coil. I tried modelling it as a solenoid but the solenoid exceeds my required length when I enter the number of turns. On the other hand I'd like to know the effect of radius change when the number of turns are increased so that the coil is wound on each other. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

To find the induced EMF in a coil placed near a current-carrying conductor, you can use the Ansys Maxwell software. First, you will need to model the coil as a conductor with a specific number of turns. You can then specify the radius of the coil and its position relative to the current-carrying conductor.

To better understand the effect of changing the number of turns and the radius of the coil, you can perform a parametric study in Ansys Maxwell. This will allow you to vary these parameters and observe the resulting induced EMF in the coil. You can also use the results of this study to optimize the design of your coil for maximum induced EMF.

Additionally, you can also use the "Coupled Magnetic and Electric Field" analysis type in Ansys Maxwell to accurately simulate the interaction between the coil and the current-carrying conductor. This will give you a more comprehensive understanding of the induced EMF in the coil.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any further questions. Good luck with your simulation!
