How can I connect coils in series

      I have made a transformer coil with 10 turns taken from RmExprt. UIse Seperate bodies option to make individual coils. Make surface sections as shown below

      Hi @Sherin nAre you creating a winding in the Excitation?nwhen you are defining a winding group under excitation you will see an option to define the number of parallel paths. If you leve this to 1 all the coli terminals added under this winding will be considered in series.nnYou will still see the number of conduction paths equal to the number of coils, but maxwell considers all the coils as series within that winding group.nYou cal follow the below procedure.nWhen you create the sections for the coil you get two sections for each coil. Keeping the section selected, use the separate bodies option under Modler>Boolean>separate bodiesnNow all the sections are separate. what you need is only one coil section per coil. delete all the sections on one side of the coil group.nNow you have one section per turn. assign coil terminal excitation to all coil sections. all these are displayed under the excitations in the project manager. nRight-click on excitations and create winding and define the current. Now select the winding definition under excitation and assign coil terminals, select all the coils and add to the windingnnRegardsnNavya

      hello navya

      i have one question in this regard:

      In my BLDC motor model, I have one coil with 152 turns, I wanted to have the tapings of say 2 turn 5 turns and 10 turns from a 152 turn coil-1.  could you please explain the procedure for that.
