Saving Field Solutions for a Design of Experiments Setup

In order to preserve disk space, by default Ansys Electronics Desktop does not save field solution data for every solved design variation in a Design of Experiments setup. It only saves the field solutions for the nominal design. If the nominal design is not included in the Design of Experiments setup, by default field solutions will not be available.

To save the fields for all design variations solved during a Design of Experiments analysis:

Right-click Optimetrics in the Project Manager and choose Add > Design of Experiments from the shortcut menu to create a new Design of Experiments setup.
Alternatively, to change the settings of an existing setup, right-click the desired Design of Experiments setup under Optimetrics in the Project Manager and choose Properties.
The Design of Experiments Setup dialog box appears.
Select the Options tab.
Select Save Fields And Mesh. Optionally, select Copy geometrically equivalent meshes.
Ansys Electronics Desktop will save the field solution data for every solved design variation in the design of experiments setup.

Note:

Alternatively, you can modify the Ansys Electronics Desktop General Options to save fields by default for any new Optimetrics setup. See: Saving Field Solutions for Optimetrics Analyses for instructions.

Changing the default setting in the General Options has no effect on previously defined Optimetrics setups.
