How do you start HFSS?

HFSS Information. Once the client comes up, go to start and go to ANSYS menu GO to Workbench and within Workbench click HFSS. Once there, click on Geometry (or someting else in the menu of the HFSS) and then the Electronics Desktop will open up. That is HFSS!!!

What is Ansys HFSS used for?

Ansys HFSS is a 3D electromagnetic (EM) simulation software for designing and simulating high-frequency electronic products such as antennas, antenna arrays, RF or microwave components, high-speed interconnects, filters, connectors, IC packages and printed circuit boards.

What is inset feed?

Abstract: An inset feed microstrip patch antenna is designed to increase the bandwidth and return loss. RT-Duriod with dielectric constant of 4.4 is used as a substrate for the proposed antenna. The inset feed and slot improves the impedance matching and return loss.

How do you make an antenna?

Antenna Design Overview

1. That the antenna is resonant at the same frequency as the radio signal applied and.
2. That the feedpoint of the antenna is matched to the impedance of the attached transmitter energy source. Tip Maximum energy transfer between source and load ( the antenna)

How do you zoom in HFSS?

Please use the zoom function as shared below which will allow you to draw a rectangle area of your interest to zoom. If you want the mesh to be finer, you can select the object of your choice and go to “Mesh” folder in the “Project Manager Window”.

Is HFSS software free?

Ansys Electronics Desktop Student – Free Software Download. Ansys HFSS is a multipurpose, full-wave 3D electromagnetic (EM) simulation software.

What does HFSS stand for?

HFSS is a commercial finite element method solver for electromagnetic structures from Ansys . The acronym stands for high-frequency structure simulator. HFSS is one of several commercial tools used for antenna design, and the design of complex RF electronic circuit elements including filters, transmission lines, and packaging.

How does HFSS work?

HFSS generates a geometrically conforming,tetrahedral mesh automatically.

HFSS’s iterative meshing algorithm solves the fields of the model and intelligently refines the mesh until S-parameters converge below a user-defined threshold,Maximum Delta S.

The user defines frequency or frequencies at which adaptive meshing is performed.

What is solution frequency in HFSS?

HFSS decides that you have enough mesh elements when it adds more mesh elements (for one or two iterations) and ALL of the S-parameters change less than some “delta S” value (which you choose). At this point, you have a stable solution at one frequency— your solution frequency (or “mesh frequency”).

What does HFSS stand for in design?

The acronym stands for high-frequency structure simulator. HFSS is one of several commercial tools used for antenna design, and the design of complex radio frequency electronic circuit elements including filters, transmission lines, and packaging. It was originally developed by Professor Zoltan Cendes and his students at Carnegie Mellon University.
