I want to apply different time-varying voltages on each of the objects. Around this object there are some other non-metal parts. All this objects are stationary.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Additionally there is another group of objects, consisting of metal and non-metal parts, which I want to move past the other group of objects. (I am simplifying here to clarify principle questions. I am actually simulating a vacuum-switch)&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now I have this problem in Ansys-Maxwell:&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the Electric-Transient solver I am able to assign time-varying excitations and I get the electrical fields for each time-step. But there is no way to assign a motion for the moving parts.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the Transient solver I am able to assign a motion to the moving parts (and maybe also a time-varying voltages, but couldnt work it out yet). But the solver gives me only the Magnetic fields. I am interrested in the electrical and electric-potential field.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What solver should I use for my problem and what should I do? Maybe a way how to obtain the electrical fields in the transient solver or how to set up a motion for the electric-transient solver?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thank You for Your help!&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-424927","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-ansys-maxwell","topic-tag-ansysmotion","topic-tag-electric-field-1","topic-tag-electric-transient-1","topic-tag-motion-setup-1","topic-tag-transient"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_forum_id":["27793"],"_bbp_topic_id":["424927"],"_bbp_subscription":["518361","527490"],"_bbp_author_ip":["147.161.228.115"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["425094"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["425094"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2025-03-11 07:38:16"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":["1"],"_bbp_voice_count":["1"],"_btv_view_count":["194"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_engagement":["518361"],"_bbp_status":["publish"]},"test":"sven-wolfde-abb-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/424927","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/424927\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=424927"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
