Reply To: Induction heating a steel bar

Hello Unda,

Induction heating can be simulated in two ways.

• By carrying out an analysis in Maxwell with peak current pumped into the model and trasnfering the steady state results to thermal for hte computation of the temperature.
• Use system coupling option which would help you to do data transfer between for the electromagnetic solver and thermal at defined intervals of time to take care of the thermal effect on the losses.
