Examples

Create a basic choke with default parameters:

>>> from ansys.aedt.core.modeler.advanced_cad.choke import Choke
>>> choke = Choke()
>>> choke.name = "my_choke"

Create a choke with custom core dimensions:

>>> choke = Choke()
>>> choke.core["Inner Radius"] = 15
>>> choke.core["Outer Radius"] = 25
>>> choke.core["Height"] = 12
>>> choke.core["Material"] = "ferrite"

Create a choke with custom winding configuration:

>>> choke = Choke()
>>> choke.outer_winding["Wire Diameter"] = 2.0
>>> choke.outer_winding["Turns"] = 30
>>> choke.outer_winding["Material"] = "copper"

Configure number of windings:

>>> choke = Choke()
>>> # Set to 2 windings
>>> choke.number_of_windings = {"1": False, "2": True, "3": False, "4": False}

Set wire section type:

>>> choke = Choke()
>>> # Use hexagonal wire section
>>> choke.wire_section = {"None": False, "Hexagon": True, "Octagon": False, "Circle": False}

Create choke in HFSS application:

>>> import ansys.aedt.core as pyaedt
>>> hfss = pyaedt.Hfss()
>>> choke = Choke()
>>> objects = choke.create_choke(app=hfss)
>>> ground = choke.create_ground(app=hfss)
>>> mesh = choke.create_mesh(app=hfss)
>>> ports = choke.create_ports(ground, app=hfss)

Load choke configuration from JSON file:

>>> from ansys.aedt.core.generic.file_utils import read_json
>>> config_data = read_json("choke_config.json")
>>> choke = Choke.from_dict(config_data)

Export choke configuration to JSON file:

>>> choke = Choke()
>>> choke.export_to_json("my_choke_config.json")

Create a differential mode choke:

>>> choke = Choke()
>>> choke.mode = {"Differential": True, "Common": False}
>>> choke.layer_type = {"Separate": True, "Linked": False}

Create a triple layer choke:

>>> choke = Choke()
>>> choke.layer = {"Simple": False, "Double": False, "Triple": True}
>>> choke.inner_winding["Turns"] = 10
>>> choke.mid_winding["Turns"] = 15
>>> choke.outer_winding["Turns"] = 20
