Since version 2026, Flux 3D and Flux PEEC are no longer available.

Please use SimLab to create a new 3D project or to import an existing Flux 3D project.

Please use SimLab to create a new PEEC project (not possible to import an existing Flux PEEC project).

/!\ Documentation updates are in progress – some mentions of 3D may still appear.

On precision

Introduction

In a type 2 script, the process is an iterative one with several exchanges between the electric and the thermal problem.

At each iteration (i.e. for each exchange) Flux evaluates a certain precision of the exchanged values.

Definition

The precision calculated in Flux is the difference between the previous and the current value.

During the first exchange it is worth 1 (in the absence of the preceding values).

If the values are the same, it is worth 0.

Utilization

This precision allows defining a stop criterion of the iterative process.
