Values

Help contents

User should specify what results provided by QuickField Postprocessor, will be stored by LabelMover and then displayed as a table of results.

These specific results are called values in LabelMover. For each value, you can specify:

• The quantity to get
  LabelMover will prompt you to select a quantity from the list. You can specify any physical or geometric quantity provided by QuickField postprocessor and supported by ActiveField technology.

  For example, you can specify potential or flux density for some point; or you can specify magnetic flux or mechanical force for some contour etc.

• Point or contour to get value in
  You can specify label for a point or contour. Please pay attention that points or contours for getting values should be labeled, non-labeled point or contour cannot be selected by LabelMover.
  For more complex situations, you can also specify compound contours, consisting of several parts marked with different labels. See How to Define Compound Contours for more information.
  
  For problems with coupled circuits, you can also specify a circuie element to get value for.

• Additional information for some special problem types
  For some special type of problems and parameters, you should provide additional information:
  • For transient problems you should specify the time for the value.

  • For time-harmonic problems, you can choose to specify a momentary value at given phase. In this case, you should specify a phase for the value.

So, for example, typical values could be: "Potential for the vertex labeled as A" or "Magnetic flux for the contour defined by the edges labeled as B" or "Magnetic flux for the contour defined by block C", "Heat flux for the contour defined by block D at time = 10 seconds" etc.

Tip. If you need a field value in some point or contour, where there are no QuickField vertices, edges or blocks located, then before running LabelMover you should start QuickField Model Editor, add a new vertex or edges, and label them. See Preparing base problem for more information.

Some Other Useful Options

• Local values for contours
  Sometimes we are interested in information about local values (like potential or permeability etc.) at some contour. LabelMover allows doing it easily.
  After generation and solving the set of QuickField problems these values will be displayed in the table of results
  • Maximum and minimal values will be displayed

  • Double-clicking over the corresponding cell in the table of results will display the X-Y plot of the value for this contour.

• Viewing Max and Min values (Serial Analysis only)
  For serial analysis, there is a check box Show Max / Min in the value description dialog. If this box is checked, the maximum and minimum values will be highlighted in the table of results:
  • Cell where the maximum is reached will be displayed in red.
  • Cell where the minimum is reached will be displayed in blue.
• Maximum Deviation from Nominal (Tolerance Analysis only)
  For tolerance analysis, you can specify a maximum deviation from nominal allowed for this value. If you specify the maximum deviation, the estimated percent of defects will be calculated and dispalyed (that is, the estimated percent of problems that does not fit this maximum deviation).
