In 3D components, when Conductor model of the parent feature is
Homogenized multiturn and
Numeric is selected as
Coil type, or if
Conductor model of the parent feature is
Single conductor in the
Coil node, the
Geometry Analysis subnode is added by default. To this, an
Input (for Geometry Analysis) subnode is also added by default.
To complete the setup for the computation of the coil direction, a Coil Geometry Analysis study step must be added to the study before the main study step.
If the model represents only a part of a geometry obtained from symmetry cuts (for example, a quarter of a circle), use the settings under Symmetry specification to specify appropriate correction factors. Enter the
Coil length multiplication factor FL and
Coil area multiplication factor FA (dimensionless integer numbers). The actual length of the coil, used to compute the coil voltage and resistance, is then computed as the product
FL·
L, where
L is the length of the domain. The cross-section area of the coil is computed as
FA·
A, where
A is the cross-section area of the domain. The values of
L and
A are computed automatically during the Coil Geometry Analysis study step.
