FrequencyFDTDSettings

Advanced FDTD time interval properties.

Example

application = cf.Application.getInstance()
project = application:NewProject()

    -- Enable the FDTD solver

project.Contents.SolutionSettings.SolverSettings.FDTDSettings.FDTDEnabled = true

    -- Set the initial frequency

frequency = project.Contents.SolutionConfigurations.GlobalFrequency
frequency.Start = 100e6

    -- Modify the FDTD time interval settings
    -- A properties table is used as both the modifications
    -- must be done together

properties = frequency:GetProperties()
properties.Advanced.FDTD.TimeIntervalType = cf.Enums.FrequencyFDTDTimeIntervalTypeEnum.Seconds
properties.Advanced.FDTD.MaximumTimeIntervalEnabled = true
properties.Advanced.FDTD.MaximumTimeInterval = 1e-5
frequency:SetProperties(properties)

Property List

ConvergenceThreshold
Specify a value between (0,1). The simulation will be terminated if the threshold has been reached and the simulation time is larger or equal to the MinimumTimeInterval. Only valid if ConvergenceThresholdEnabled. (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
ConvergenceThresholdEnabled
Apply a convergence threshold. (Read/Write boolean)
MaximumTimeInterval
Set the maximum time interval duration for which the model is simulated. Only valid if MaximumTimeIntervalEnabled and TimeIntervalType is Periods or Seconds, which implies a unit of either (dimensionless) or (s). (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
MaximumTimeIntervalEnabled
Apply a maximum limit to the time interval duration.Only valid if TimeIntervalType is Periods or Seconds. (Read/Write boolean)
MinimumTimeInterval
Set the minimum time interval duration for which the model is simulated. Only valid if MinimumTimeIntervalEnabled and TimeIntervalType is Periods or Seconds, which implies a unit of either (dimensionless) or (s). (Read/Write ParametricExpression)
MinimumTimeIntervalEnabled
Apply a minimum limit to the time interval duration.Only valid if TimeIntervalType is Periods or Seconds. (Read/Write boolean)
TimeIntervalType
Control the determination of the time duration for which the model is simulated. (Read/Write FrequencyFDTDTimeIntervalTypeEnum)
