Actually I was able to solve the problem. Older versions have limitations. The problem will be solved by modeling in new versions.Y_G said:Hi everybody, I encountered a problem simulation of permanent magnets (PM) in Ansys Maxwell. There are many PM in my simulation and I need to define for each of them a proper coordinate system (CS). But I could only defined 255 CS. After that I can create new CS but It won't be possible to assign it to the PM. Is there any limitation on defining more than 255 CS?
Ansys Maxwell primarily supports Cartesian, cylindrical, and spherical coordinate systems. However, it has limitations when it comes to complex transformations or non-standard coordinate systems. Users may find it challenging to define custom coordinate systems that are not aligned with these standard types.
While Ansys Maxwell allows some degree of customization, defining entirely custom coordinate systems can be complex and is not straightforward. Users typically need to work within the predefined Cartesian, cylindrical, or spherical systems and apply transformations as needed.
Coordinate system limitations can impact the accuracy of simulations, especially for geometries or fields that are more naturally described in non-standard coordinate systems. Misalignment or improper transformations can introduce errors or require additional computational resources to correct.
Yes, users often employ workarounds such as breaking down complex geometries into simpler parts that fit within the supported coordinate systems or using coordinate transformations judiciously. Advanced users may also use scripting to handle more complex scenarios.
Ansys continuously updates its software to improve functionality and address user feedback. While specific updates on coordinate system capabilities may not be frequent, users should keep an eye on release notes and updates for potential improvements in this area.
