Winding excitation in 2D transient for Ansys Maxwell

      Hi,

      There are two excitations available in Ansys Maxwell for 2D transient analysis: voltage and current. I have observed that it is only possible to add Y connection in case of voltage excited windings but not for current excited windings. My questions are as follows:

       

      1. In case of current excited windings, what is the default connection assumed by Maxwell, star or delta?
      2. Can I get delta connection in Ansys Maxwell 2D tranient similar to Y connection?

      Thank you very much!

      Best Regards,

      Ruchika

      Hi,

      Delta/Wye connection is only defined in the external circuit instead of in excitation. If you would like to use a start connection with current source, you only need two sources due to KCL.
