How to set active variation from pyaedt
Hello, I have a parametric sweep set up and solved in the eddy current solver for maxwell 3D and I am trying to use the fields calculator through pyaedt to export the B field and grad B at the different frequencies in the parametric sweep (NB not the standard frequency sweep!).
- The project I am using has lots of variables set up to dependent on each other i.e. the frequency is defined as 1/time_period and another variable delta contains the skin depth (to allow for correct mesh settings throughout the sweep etc)
SO, I need to pass the values of these variables to the fields calculator to export the values I want for each variation.
I have tried using things like set_active_variation() and get_solution_data_per_variation() but is not clear to me how these interact with the variables in maxwell and when I do something like:
eval_freq = m3d.get_evaluated_value("freq_vde")
eval_period = m3d.get_evaluated_value("t_vde")
eval_delta = m3d.get_evaluated_value("delta")
The values returned are not affected by the set_active_variation() method. Can someone tell me how to use the set_activate_variation method with Maxwell3D in order to do what in the GUI seems to be equivalent to "apply solved variation", or give me an idea of a better way to do it. Thank you.

Hi Marshall,
Use the following command "m3d.post.create_fieldplot_volume" to plot the fields in m3d. in context to that, there are multiple options available too.
For understanding the active variation methods and reports please have a look @ https://aedt.docs.pyansys.com/version/stable/examples/03-Maxwell/Maxwell3D_Team3_bath_plate.html.
