HFSS15: Viewing Convergence Data

To view an adaptive solution’s convergence information, either during or after the solution process:

1. In the project tree, right-click the solution setup of interest, and then click Convergence on the shortcut menu.

The Solution Data window appears. The Convergence tab is selected.

2. From the Simulation list, select the solution setup for which you want to view convergence data.

By default, the most recently solved solution is selected.

3. Under the Convergence tab, depending on your design setup, you can review the following convergence data:

• Whether the solution is converged or not converged.

• Number of adaptive passes completed and remaining.

• The number of tetrahedra created at each adaptive pass.

• Maximum magnitude of delta S between two passes.

• Maximum delta Energy between two passes.

• Magnitude margin between passes.

• Phase margin (deg) between passes.

• Maximum delta frequency between passes.

If for the Solution Setup, you elected to Use Matrix Convergence, and selected specific table entries for the Magnitude and Phase, the Convergence tab also shows the following values with the Magnitude Margin and Phase Margin:

• Max Delta (Mag S)

• Max Delta (Phase S)

4. Select Table to display the convergence data in table format or Plot to plot the convergence data on a rectangular (X - Y) plot.
