Winding Direction in Coil Geometry

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

After drawing a chunck block, I set this block as a homogenized multi-turn coil with circular coil-type. Then I need to select edges with a consistent direction to make it work as the coil.

The only problem is, only one edge element shows opposite direction. Does anybody can fix this kind of problem?

Since this is a closed-loop non-circular coil, you may want to change to "numeric coil" type, and specify the input using internal boundary orthogonal to the coil direction.
