Feature 6: Component 2.0 [Beta]
What's new: the new Component 2.0
• A new ".acmp2" component file type
• Create a unified component containing multiphysics representations
compatible with HFSS, Icepak STM, Icepak Detailed, Q3D
• Define a component once at the project level and reuse it across all
designs
• Full encryption support, equivalent to existing a3dcomps
Advantages:
• One component, many solves consistent EM, thermal, and
conduction behaviour across the workflow
• No duplicate model creation faster setup and reduced risk
of mismatched component definitions
• Streamlined multiphysics workflows simplifies
HFSS/Icepak/Q3D flows with aligned geometry/material
