The File/EM Mapping/Volumetric Energy Source... ribbon tab item opens the Maxwell Mapping Volumetric Dialog Box.
The Maxwell Mapping Volumetric dialog box allows you to map the volumetric loss results from an Ansys Maxwell electromagnetic simulation onto the centroids of cell zones in the Fluent mesh as a heat source.
See Performing Fluent and Maxwell Coupling in Workbench for details.
Controls
- Fluent Cell Zones
contains a list of cell zones from the Fluent mesh, onto which the loss information can be mapped. For these zones, Fluent requests the heat source (loss) terms from Maxwell.
- Transfer Definition
contains elements related to the transfer of data, including:
- Solution
contains available solution sets. Since Maxwell may have multiple solutions, Fluent will request the generated heat source data for the selected solution.
- Frequency
(only available for steady simulations) contains available frequencies. Fluent will request that Maxwell provide the heat source data for the selected frequency.
- Start time
(only available for transient simulations) contains the simulation start time. Maxwell will request to consider the selected time as the start time.
- End time
(only available for transient simulations) contains the simulation end time. Maxwell will request to consider the selected time as the end time.
