Reply To: Regarding the mesh accuracy related issues in HFSS and AEDT Icepak electro-therm

[Rabindra Paul]

Hi, Thanks for using Ansys learning forum. You are right about the interpolation inaccuracies for excessive differences in the mesh. However, if you have required mesh resolution in HFSS to represent the correct power losses then Icepak should get the correct power losses as an input. It is not required to use the same mesh as long as power losses are correctly represented. You can  display the EM losses in Icepak before solving to confirm the correct power distribution. In Icepak, you need to make sure that the mesh resolution is good to capture the power losses. As for example, you need more mesh for the area of high power gradient compared to the area where power is uniform.

Hope this answers your question.
