[start here]

I tried to simulate a structure similar to that of a transformer in which an inductor is wound over a iron core with an iron gap. I have attached the structure image for your perusal. When ever I use stationary solver I dont have any trouble. But coming to Time Dependent solver, I changed the coil nature to Multi-turn coil-Numeric as well as changed the source to Sine source.

I get the following error.

Failed to find consistent initial values. Segregated Step 1 Division by zero. Function: / Failed to evaluate variable. Variable: comp1.mf.mtcd1.Vind, Defined as: (((300comp1.mf.mtcd1.intmtcd(((comp1.mf.mtcd1.eCoilycomp1.mf.Ey)+(comp1.mf.mtcd1.eCoilxcomp1.mf.Ex))+(comp1.mf.mtcd1.eCoilzcomp1.mf.Ez)))comp1.mf.mtcd1.fl)comp1.mf.mtcd1.fA)/comp1.mf.mtcd1.area Failed to evaluate variable.

Please help me mates. I am in need of this solution.

Hello Sangeerth,

I encountered a similar error message and this did the trick for me: https://www.comsol.de/support/knowledgebase/1127/

Maybe it helps yout too.

Hi Linda First I wish to thank you for your response. I have included with "Fully Coupled" Giving Max no. of iterations to be 16 But now I came with another error

Division by zero. - Function: / Failed to evaluate temporary symbolic derivative variable. - Variable: comp1.mf.Jex@VDN${comp1.mf.mtcd1.avemtcd@19} - Defined as: (comp1.mf.mtcd1.eCoilx300)(1/comp1.mf.mtcd1.area) Failed to evaluate temporary symbolic derivative variable. - Variable: comp1.mf.Jx@VDN${comp1.mf.mtcd1.avemtcd@19} - Defined as: (comp1.mf.mtcd1.eCoilx300)(1/comp1.mf.mtcd1.area) Failed to evaluate expression. - Expression: d(d((comp1.mf.d(-comp1.mf.Hxcomp1.mf.testcurlAx-comp1.mf.Hycomp1.mf.testcurlAy-comp1.mf.Hzcomp1.mf.testcurlAz+comp1.mf.Jxtest(comp1.mf.Adepx)+comp1.mf.Jytest(comp1.mf.Adepy)+comp1.mf.Jztest(comp1.mf.Adepz)))(dvol),{test@10}),{comp1.mf.mtcd1.avemtcd@19}) - Feature: Time-Dependent Solver 1 (sol1/t1)

This is some what different from the previous one. But I dont know why. Can U please help me. Regards Sangeerth P
