Does anyone know how to tell ansys Maxwell 3d software that the rotor is not a conductor and of reluctance type in 3d?

When I validate my design in maxwell 3d it gives the error ''Find conduction path: Multilump bodies found unconnected, please separate them. Possible error bodies are 'rotor''' whereas my rotor is...

Vikas Sharma Popular answer

Dear Salman

The field you selected i.e. DC partial discharge. Find the relevant field and analysis should be made for finding the work done and from that you will be able to find research topic. This Literature reviews is also helpful and should be made before start anything.

If then you have some problem then asked particular topic. This is called your homework.

We are not suppose to do these here. Do your homework then ask appropriate question. Thanks

You should find a better mentor to guide you (than random people on internet). Also dont let negativity get to you, its fairly common in academia. I don't fully agree with previous posters, since in my opinion begining PhD student certainly needs a little bit of hand holding. That means suggesting topics for research, and also literature for studying. If you have an inclination toward scientific programming I would recommend studying numerical methods related to your field of interest, but that just something I would do :) Good luck with your research!

Try detecting insulation breaking in long cables.

Corona plasma generation for bio-medical applications.

EMI generated by controlled discharges and proper wireless detection.

Gas generation, caused by arc discharge.

I would suggest the problem of water treeing in dielectric breakdown. This is of great practical as well as theoretical importance. Don´t be put down by negative comments. Asking Your peers for interesting subjects to pursue is a good and proper use of forums like Researchgate.
