Maxwell Transient Cosimulation Component
Maxwell is an interactive software package that uses Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to solve 2D and 3D electromagnetic problems. To analyze a problem, the component designer specifies the appropriate geometry, material properties, and excitations for a device or a system of devices. When a Transient Cosimulation Component subcircuit is used in a Twin Builder design, Maxwell 2D or 3D transient and Twin Builder transient solvers exchange data during each simulation time step.
During transient parametric co-simulations with Maxwell, the system adds the TBOptiVariation design variable to the Maxwell design in order to facilitate the simulation. This variable is read-only; do not change or delete its value.
