System Coupling enables modeling of electric arc propagation by coupling Ansys Fluent and Ansys Electronics Desktop. System Coupling facilitates the exchange of heat losses, Lorentz forces, electrical conductivity, and temperature between these solvers in a coupled analysis workflow.

System Coupling provides a rich set of co-simulation features that are applicable to electric arc modeling analysis. For details, see the rest of this guide. This section provides only information that is specific to electric arc modeling.
