    Outputing results from ansys into separate file!

    hey Alex, I tried what you said and it didnt seem to make any difference! but when i eliminate the 0's in excel and input the results into matlab they seem to work out pretty well! maybe it outputs excess nodes or something, Well thanks for all your help, youve been a lifesaver! Cheers Shane

    Outputing results from ansys into separate file!

    hey Alex, The above code worked out great but i just have one further question! For some reason Ansys has given back a value of 0 for flux density in the Y direction for alot but not all of the nodes when it exports them into that separate file! Is there a reason for this? I believe that i have...

    Outputing results from ansys into separate file!

    hey Alex, I cant seem to get the solution that you gave me out! I tried manipulating what you gave me so that i got the x and z coordinate at every node along with the flux density as follows: asel,s,area,,10 nsla,s,1 cm,outnodes,node *get,nmin,node,,num,min !defining minimum node number on...

    Outputing results from ansys into separate file!

    hey alex, Thats a great help and il throw it into ansys now and see how i get on! I need the 30*30 matrix as i have recorded data of the flux density from a real magnet and am trying to model it in ansys and see how accurate it is! Then using matlab i can compile the error across each surface...

    Outputing results from ansys into separate file!

    Hi, I have modelled a 3D Magnet in ANSYS and i want to output the results for the flux intensity for a single area of the magnet. Not just that i want to put these values into a 30*30 array so that i can inport it into matlab!! Is it possible to do this with the ansys software? i have seen some...

    magnet moving over a conductive sheet?

    hey Alex, Thanks a million, i got it working in the end after i inputed the air elements and overlapped the volumes! I used the harmonic analysis at a very low frequency of 0.0001 to simulate a static analysis and i got the desired result. Thanks again. Shane

    magnet moving over a conductive sheet?

    Hi Alex, When i use use the above i get back an error saying i cant use A+Volt DOF's of freedom in a magneto static analysis which is the dof i need for the eddy currents. how would i get around this if i wanted to use static analysis? When i tried transient it solves but again there is no...

    magnet moving over a conductive sheet?

    hello everyone, I am currently trying to model a permanent magnet moving over a conductive sheet of aluminium. I am using the solid117 element for both the conductive sheet and the magnet. I am trying to determine the eddy currents generated within the conductive sheet. So far i can get an...
