ANSYS HFSS is an industry standard tool for simulating 3-D full-wave electromagnetic fields. Students registered in ECE451 can get free access to ANSYS HF package from the University of Illinois Software Webstore. Follow the installation guide. to install the software on your PC. HFS+ vs APFS Up until recently, HFS+ was the only file system supported by macOS and OS X. However, with the launch of the newest macOS High Sierra, Apple introduced a new drive type called Apple File System (APFS). HFS+ HFS+ was first introduced in 1998 with the launch of Mac OS 8.1 back when Apple made the switch to Intel-based processors. Although HFS+ is supported on all versions of Mac.

As with many engineering softwares, ANSYS is not available for the Mac OSX platform. However, it is still possible to install ANSYS and your other engineering softwares on an Apple computer by first installing Windows on your Mac. Please follow this guide to learn how to install Windows and ANSYS on your Mac.

1. Buy and install Parallels Desktop 11 (~$80).

Students and teachers may be able to obtain a 50% discount here. Make sure to check the system requirements. Your computer needs at least 4GB of RAM to run Parallels Desktop but unless you want to run ANSYS version 14.5 or earlier, your computer needs at least 8GB of RAM to run ANSYS smoothly on the virtual machine. We also recommend that you have at least 20GB of free hard disk space.

While your Apple computer already has a software called BootCamp to install Windows on your Mac, it requires the user to reboot each time he or she wants to switch operating systems. The user also has to play with disk partitioning which makes the setup more complicated. We highly recommend using Parallels Desktop for its ease of use and flexibility. This software allows the user to run Mac OSX and Windows side by side and it does not require hard drive partitioning. Windows simply acts as an application that you can run or close as you wish. All the Windows files are contained in one master file (a .pvm file) that you can move wherever you want, even on an external hard rive.

2. Get yourself a copy of Windows 7, 8 or 10 with 64-bit (X64) from an installation CD or ISO file.

Windows 10 Home is available on the Microsoft Store for $120. Students and teachers may be able to obtain a FREE or severely discounted copy of Windows 10 here. It is accessible as an ISO file to download. IMPORTANT: Make sure it is the 64-bit version (X64).

3. Run Parallels Desktop 11 and follow the on-screen instructions to install Windows.

If you downloaded Windows as an ISO file, you will simply be asked to drag and drop the ISO file in the box to proceed with the installation process. If you have the Windows installation CD, then simply insert it in the drive when prompted. We suggest that you choose to use Windows for 'Productivity'. Feel free to follow this excellent installation guide if you need.

Required Configurations

To access the configuration settings of the virtual machine, please see this guide. Note that the virtual machine must be shut down prior to making changes to these settings. Here are some settings modifications that MUST be implemented for ANSYS to work properly with Parallels Desktop.

1. Memory allocation
   1. Go in the 'Hardware' tab and select 'CPU & Memory'.
   2. Set the memory allocated to Parallels Desktop to be at least 2112 MB. This is because ANSYS 16.0 and later needs this amount of RAM to run the solver. We also highly recommend that the amount of memory you set lies in the green 'recommended' range (too much memory allocated to Parallels Desktop will slow down your mac). This will only happen if your computer has at least 8GB of RAM, hence why we recommend to have at least this amount.
      (Since this computer only has 4GB of RAM, it runs very poorly while in the yellow range)
2. Folder Sharing
   1. Go to Options>Sharing
   2. Unselect 'Share Mac user folders with Windows'

Recommended Configurations

We also recommend the following settings for ease of use and optimal performance.

Hfss On Mac Download

1. Go in the Options tab
   
   1. Select 'Optimization'
      1. Make sure your settings are set this way.
         
   2. Select 'Sharing'
      1. Have the settings set like so.
         
      2. This will effectively keep Windows separate from the Mac. It makes using Parallels more intuitive and simple.
   3. Select 'Applications'
      1. Disable the sharing so that it looks like this.
         
2. Go in the 'Hardware' tab and select 'CPU & Memory'.
   1. Try setting the number of CPUs (cores) to 2. Test whether the performances of Windows are better, and if the Mac still runs smoothly. The odds are that it will and than ANSYS will compute faster. This is the default setting in Parallels 10.

4. Obtain and install ANSYS 17.0.

ANSYS now offers a student version of their software for FREE. The functionalities are more or less the same as in the full version except that structural problems are restricted to 32,000 nodes and fluid problems are restricted to 512,000 nodes. This is more than enough for what a typical student will need.

Firewall notifications

On your first few uses of ANSYS, Firewall notifications should pop up. Make sure to allow all ANSYS programs to run normally (i.e do not let the Firewall block ANSYS programs). You can verify the allowed program list by going into Start>Control Panel>System & Security>Allow a program through Windows Firewall.

Please contact Sebastien at sfl32@cornell.edu if you have any questions regarding this installation guide.

This page include al information relevat to HFSS

1. How to access HFSS via vlabs

This semester you will be doing a design project using ANSYS modeling tool. Here are the options as to how you can access this software:

• It is available in all the engineering academic labs

• You may also go here:vabs.uml.eduand use it from anywhere in the world on any device. The login is your e-mail account and you choose vlabs engineering. You can choose either client or HTML, the client install is for people who have their own PC.

1. YOu must log on with your email credentials (full email address, includingstudent.uml.edu part)
2. CHoose VLABS Engineering
3. Once the client comes up, go to start and go to ANSYS menu GO to Workbench and within Workbench click HFSS. Once there, click on Geometry (or someting else in the menu of the HFSS) and then the Electronics Desktop will open up. That is HFSS!!!
4. then go to Insert HFSS Design and begin to play:)
5. you must log off from client (oeprating system) so that no license problems come up

• For those students who have MACs, you have 2 choices:

  a. Darren can put VM on the MAC and run windows which will cut their resources in half.

  b. Use vlabs at vlabs.uml.edu(described above)

HERE IS THE SAME Instructions WITH ACTUAL CAPTURES FROM Computer

Here are the steps: when you log on—go to Program files and open up Ansys and you should see this:

Click on Workbench

THEN CLICK ON HFSS and you will see this

DOUBLE CLICK ON GEOETRY IN THE HFSS DESIGN BOX THAT APPEARs- THEN THAT SHOULD OPEN U THE ELECTRONICS DESKTOP WHICH IS YOUR MAIN HFSS WORK AREA AND PROGRAM! YOU WILL SEE THIS:

UPDATE:

Hfss Macro

If you are having a problem starting ANSYS Electronics Desktop and HFSS. The issue stems from a known bug in R17.0, which is the version they have available. Here is how you might fix this problem.

If you launch ANSYS Electronics Desktop, and see Simplorer in the title bar, complete these steps:

Hfss On Macbook

1. Close down Simplorer.
2. In Windows Explorer or My Computer, browse to the user directory, and the Documents folder. Under there, open the Ansoft folder. In there, DELTE the the ElectronicsDesktop2016.0 folder.
3. Start ANSYS Electronics Desktop.
