So I tried doing it in Maxwell Electrostatics, where I excited each individual turn a corresponding voltage, by extracting the capacitance matrix. However, the capacitance matrix shows turn-to-turn capacitance. I want to get the lump value so that I can represent it in a cicuit, like below. How do I achieve this?

Hi,

Please simulate one coil at a time. For example, if your excitation is 1V, for each turn/layer, please assign

 voltage for each turn/layer as

                                       1V/N/2 for 1^st layer

                                      1V/N*(1+1/2) for 2^nd layer

.

.

.

                                      1V/N*(N-1/2) for last layer

After that, please find the total energy in the convergence page, and use W=1/2*C*U^2 to calculate the lump C.

Hi GL,

Thanks for the reply.

I understand that much. But I want to get the Cp, Cs, Cwa and, Cwb. If I do that, I will only get 1 lumped capacitance.
