Export field data on Maxwell3D Ansys

[SoufianeLaebouss]

Hi everyone,

I'm working with Ansys Maxwell 3D Simulation and I'm trying to export field values. However, I'm having trouble finding the exact expressions or variable names used internally by the software (e.g., for electric field, magnetic field, etc.).

Does anyone know where I can find a reference or documentation listing these variables and how to access or use them properly? And if anyone have an idea to export field valued?

Thanks a lot for your help in advance!

Hi @SoufianeLaebouss,

We have a Maxwell 3D example in our library that shows how to export fields for a transient solution: https://examples.aedt.docs.pyansys.com/version/dev/examples/low_frequency/general/field_export.html .
You can find in this section how to get the available report quantities (in this case from the calculator): https://examples.aedt.docs.pyansys.com/version/dev/examples/low_frequency/general/field_export.html#Get-available-report-quantities and then you can see how to export fields in the for loop.

I'd also like to point you to a new PyAEDT extension that you can install within AEDT: https://aedt.docs.pyansys.com/version/stable/User_guide/pyaedt_extensions_doc/maxwell/fields_distribution.html
This extension exports for you a field in several formats on top of the .fld format.

Hope this helps,

Kind regards,

Giulia
