WHAT'S NEW IN 7.1.1
+++++++++++++++++++
Summary
=======
- Improved the efficiency of memory usage.
- Some speedups.
Material Modeling
=================
- Added two new material parameters. Each can be set globally or at the
component level.
MaterialStackingFactor
----------------------
The stacking factor (> 0 && <= 1.0, default: 1.0) is used to adjust
permeabilities, loss coefficients and mass densities to account for
laminations. A warning is written to the material log (echoed to the
text output bar) if a non-unity一致 stacking factor is set on a component
assigned a permanent magnet or conducting material, and the factor is
ignored. The stacking factor parameter is intended for 2D use only at
present (the material library only asserts this condition, solver
validation code needs to be added to return an error if an attempt is
made to use a non-unity value in 3D).
MaterialIronLossAdjustmentFactor
--------------------------------
The iron loss adjustment factor simply scales the Kh and Ke loss
coefficients (>= 0, default: 1.0).
- Added coercivity scaling (including coercivity at maximum magnetization)
via MaterialCoercivityScaleFactor. The parameter can be set at the top or
component levels in a device.
- Renamed SolverMaterialConductivityScaleFactor to be
MaterialConductivityScaleFactor. The parameter is set at the device or
component level.
User Interface
==============
- Added a new Document section registry value check to disable the material
warnings that are issued when models are imported. It is a integer value
named "DisableImportComponentMaterialWarnings" and it accepts values or 0
(for false) or 1 (for true).
- Improved the property page dialog to remember the last active page so that
it doesn't constantly reset to the first page in the sheet when a
different object is selected. If the new object has a similar property
page, it will be made the active page.
- Changed the "Number of solver cores" to say "based on license &
availability" to reflect that the solver license pool may be empty in the
General property page.
