Get back results in FluxMotor

1. Introduction

All the motors resulting from the operations performed with Altair® HyperStudy® can be used back in Motor Catalog of Altair® FluxMotor®, and then these can be edited in Motor Factory very quickly.

Motor Catalog – Visualization of results got from HyperStudy®
1 A catalog is automatically built by using the name of the connector defined by the user
2 All the operations performed with HyperStudy® are stored in the dedicated catalog
3 Each motor can be selected, visualized and edited in the Motor Factory, to be evaluated more in depth

2. Connection between FluxMotor® and HyperStudy®

Before starting new studies in HyperStudy® by using connectors exported from FluxMotor® , FluxMotor® must be registered as a new solver script in HyperStudy®.

This must be defined only when using the coupling for the first time.
Connection between FluxMotor® and HyperStudy®
1 Open the area in HyperStudy® to register FluxMotor® 2023.1 script
2 Path where FluxMotor s .exe must be selected to be registered as a new solver in HyperStudy®.
Note: FluxMotor s .exe with a “s” at the end of FluxMotor s. This must be defined only when using the coupling for the first time.
Note: Since the version 2022.1 of HyperStudy, the FluxMotor solver script is automatically registered, when the default path installation is selected while installing Flux and FluxMotor.
Note: The new auto generating the HyperStudy Study in HyperStudy Application (described above) allows to automatically register FluxMotor® as a new solver script in HyperStudy®. If HyperStudy is not install in the same folder (by default : C:\Program Files\Altair\2023.1\hwdesktop\hst), the path must be defined in the user preferences via the supervisor of FluxMotor (Path to HyperStudy – Needed for HyperStudy export – Ref. 3 below)
Warning: Mandatory synchronization between connector and FluxMotor versions

The connectors used in HyperStudy must be synchronized with the FluxMotor solver version.

An error message (inside the log files) is generated while performing HyperStudy studies with a connector provided with a former version of FluxMotor solver.

A connector provided with FluxMotor version N-1 (or older) cannot be used in HyperStudy where the FluxMotor Solver Version N (or newest) is selected.

Since the FluxMotor 2022.3 version, each time a connector is generated, a ConnectorUpdater.py file is provided and located in the same folder as the connector

Thanks to this script, the user can update an older HyperStudy connector generated with a former version of FluxMotor.

Please refer to the document MotorFactory_2023.1_Introduction.pdf for additional information in the section dedicated to HyperStudy.
Path to HyperStudy – Needed for HyperStudy export – It must be defined in the user preferences (Supervisor of FluxMotor)
