HFSS15: Context Area

The panel at the upper right of the window identifies the context to be used for the calculations. The top line identifies the design. Depending on the design, text entry boxes allow you to select a Solution, Field Type, Freq, Phase, IWavePhi and IWaveTheta. The IWavePhi and IWaveTheta are available only for incident wave projects in which the wave is defined with spherical coordinates.

The Field Type here is not related to the edit sources. This is a general term among ANSYS EM products (HFSS, Maxwell, and Q3D). Some products have more than one field type for different solution types. If only one Field Type is available the box is grayed out. If the design contains an IE Region, you can select IE Surface Fields for J and Q input quantities.

The Change Variable Values button opens a Set Variable Values dialog. By default it has Use Nominal Design checked. Unchecking the box lets you select another variable value. OK the dialog to accept the selection.
