Mesh generation fails in HFSS – “Model has very thin thickness body”

      Hi,
      I am trying to simulate in HFSS a model with object of 54mm largest dimension and another object with smallest dimension (thickness) of 0.00026mm. While running the simulation, I am getting following errors:

          [warning] Model has very thin thickness body (9:13:43 AM  Oct 10, 2018)
          [error] Surface Mesh Generation Failed. (9:13:43 AM  Oct 10, 2018)
          [error] Simulation completed with execution error on server: Local Machine. (9:13:43 AM  Oct 10, 2018)

      I am getting this error regardless of the machine I am running simulation on.

      Is there a way to solve this error? or any alternate way. I cannot remove the object with smallest dimension because it affects the simulation.

      Thanks!

      Hello rounaksingh,


      Had you found solution of your problem?


      I am also facing the similar issue. I have tried many things but without success.


      Would you like to share your solution? It would be a great help.


      Many thanks.

      Try changing the units to lower like mm or um in the Modeler menu. It may work. One of my design worked by doing that.
