Scan Parameter Values

Post by ltnschlgr »

Hi,
I have a 2D electromagnetic simulation. In this timulation I want to determine the Co-engery for different coil positions and currents. Using the simulation type scanning I was able to change the current with virtual time steps. Moving the coil is more troubling. Rotating the mesh as in electric machines in my case should be mesh translate, but this should not work in my case, since I expect that a remesh is necessary. Could you please give me a hint how to implement a moving coil?

Hi

The most economical mesh stretching strategy is provided by RigidMeshMapper with relaxation field. See test case RigidMeshMapper2, for example.

The MeshUpdate solver can also be used. It is more expensive as it involves solving of a linear elasticity equation.
