Hi every body,

I am a new user of COMSOL and I started to do a simulation of a nondestructive testing problem. My model is composed of a circular multiturn coil above a metal plate. an alternative current is applied to the coil, and I want to calculate the impedance of the coil.

please can anyone help me to solve my problem ?

If I am understanding you correctly- you should look in the application library for "coil above plate." In that example you can perform a Global Evaluation (under Derived Values) using the expression mf.ZCoil_1 (1 being the coil number) found under Coil Parameters.

This gives you the complex coil impedance.

Thank you very much for your response, actually I already did what you said to me and I have got the impedance but when I look at the values I think that there is something wrong. may be I didn't set the poblem correctly.
1/Is there a difference in results if we use a circular multiturn coil or numeric multiturn coil?
2/ can I send you what I did to look at it when you have time?

Hi Bouhlal,

The following Application Example include a collection of different types of coils in 3D, which I think is very useful for understanding the difference in the result.
