Physics Solver help with Electromagnetic Bearing

      Good Evening ANSYS community,


      I am working on modeling a magnetic bearing using ANSYS AIM and am trying to get results but whenever I click on the 'Solve Physics' tab. The physics will seem to run fine but then throw back at me the error message: 'Update failed for the Solve Physics component in Study.  The Solution task update failed. See the error messages for more detailed information. 'Update failed for the Solve Physics component in Study.  The Solution task update failed. See the error messages for more detailed information.' There is no where I can click on to get more information and am very confused. Below I will post a picture of the magnetic bearing in question. It may be an issue with assigning current. Right now I am only trying to model the magnetism between two legs.


      Hopefully someone can help out.

      For more information regarding the magnetic bearing geometry there is an air gap of 0.5 mm between the rotor and the stator.

      There are currently two currents using source and return and I am trying to simulate the magnetic flux between the two (North and South) but am not sure if this is the correct way to induce current.
