Understanding SaveScalar Solver
Posted: 04 Jan 2022, 11:34
Hello,
i am trying to understand how the "r outer" and "r inner" radii are connected with the SaveScalars solver (Solver 5 in the code) used in the PMSM machine of tutorial from Pavel. Also how does the solver knows it should calculate the Torque?
In the literature it is stated that you can use SaveLine solver and define the coordinates using the "Polyline Coordinates".
Also in the example given in the documentation (see code below). Does the solver n calculate the values of the listed variables under given operators on the boundary m? How does the SaveScalar solver know which boundary intex to use? Probably it uses all boundaries where "Save Scalars = Logical True" is given? If I would need to calculate variables on the other boundaries as well would I need a SaveScalar solver for each boundary? In that cas, wow the particular SaveScalar solver is connected with the corresponding boundary index?
