Download and save the tutorial input files.
Download the BarAndCoil.zip archive.
Extract the archive to a local directory.
The extracted BarAndCoil directory will serve as System Coupling's co-simulation working directory. Within this directory, System Coupling creates an SyC working directory for its coupling-related output.
This directory contains setup files that are already in the recommended directory structure for a co-simulation. Participant physics are set up only so far as to allow their individual solutions. As part of this tutorial, you will complete each participant's coupling setup to enable its inclusion in the co-simulation. The following inputs are included:
- Maxwell
This is the Maxwell working directory, where you will store all the files related to the electromagnetic analysis. It contains the following setup file:
BarAndCoil.aedt: Electronics Desktop project containing the pre-coupling Maxwell setup.
- Fluent
This is the Fluent working directory, where you will store all the files related to the thermal analysis. It contains the following setup files:
BarAndCoil.cas.h5: Archived Fluent case containing the pre-coupling Fluent setup.
d.csv: Displacement profile file used to define displacement with regard to time. The profile is consistent with the motion defined in Maxwell.
