The COMSOL Parameter Selection Window
In SOLIDWORKS®, open the COMSOL Parameter Selection window by clicking the Parameter Selection button () located on the COMSOL Multiphysics toolbar. Use the Flyout Feature Manager Design Tree to select features or Equations folders. Dimensions or Global Variables for the selection are displayed in the upper table, Available Dimensions and Equations. Select items listed in the table, then click the Add button to link them to COMSOL. Linked dimensions and variables are listed in the lower table, Parameters to add to COMSOL model. To delete a parameter from the table right-click the parameter and select Delete. To clear all parameters right-click and select Clear.
All types of dimension and variables can be linked to COMSOL, but only the ones that are not defined by an equation formula are possible to control from a COMSOL model. Linking parameters that are defined by a formula enables using their values in COMSOL model definitions.
Parameters listed in the Parameters to add to COMSOL model table will be saved in the SOLIDWORKS® file next time you save the file. To remove saved parameters from the file clear the table first and then save the file. Click the Revert to Saved button to reload the parameters from the saved SOLIDWORKS® file. Confirm your changes by clicking the OK button in the upper left corner of the COMSOL Parameter Selection window.
For additional information about dimensions and variables in CAD files see the SOLIDWORKS® documentation.
