Options for Planar Transformer Simulations & SI Wave Inquiry

[monbruin61]

Is there a way I can simulate and analyze my Planar Transformer design on Ansys using the student license? I know import options are limited, but is there a method to overcome import restrictions? If so, how difficult would the process be?

I also remember hearing that SI Wave was accessible for free from a peer, but it doesn't seem included on the student license. Was my peer right in any sense? 

Please let me know as well if my best/only option for Planar Transformer simulations is to purchase an Ansys license.

I also see that there's this post from a previous year. Has there been any changes?

The situation remains the same, the Student version does not include SIwave, and the import only supports DXF and Step.
