MAGOPT, Value
Specifies options for a 3-D magnetostatic field analysis.
ValueOption key:
0  | —  | Calculate a complete H field solution in the entire domain using a single (reduced) potential. Caution: When used in problems with both current sources and iron regions, errors may result due to numerical cancellation.  | 
1  | —  | Calculate and store a preliminary H field in
"iron" regions (μr ≠ 1).  Requires flux-parallel
boundary conditions to be specified on exterior iron boundaries.  Used in
conjunction with subsequent solutions with   | 
2  | —  | Calculate and store a preliminary H field in
"air" regions (μr = 1).  The air-iron interface
is appropriately treated internally by the program.  Used in conjunction with
a subsequent solution with   | 
3  | —  | Use the previously stored H field solution(s) and calculate the complete H field.  | 
Specifies the solution sequence options for a 3-D magnetostatic field analysis using a scalar potential (MAG). The solution sequence is determined by the nature of the problem.
You cannot use constraint equations with Value =
1.
This command is also valid in PREP7.
Distributed ANSYS Restriction The MAGOPT,3 option is not supported in Distributed ANSYS when the following contact elements are present in the model: CONTA173, CONTA174, CONTA175, CONTA176, or CONTA177.
