xmcd converter

[Yihai_Li]

Hi everyone 

Can someone please help me convert these two xmcd files to mcdx files that PTC Mathcad Prime 4.0 can read? It's driving me nuts.

Much appreciated!

Hi,

I did the conversions. But there are some errors (divide by zero)

The division by zero also occurs in the original Mathcad sheet (the "flexible" one).

The reason is that at the top the number of conductors (n) is set to 1 and the distance a.s of the conductors is set to 0.

The division by zero occurs in the section "Effects of bundled Conductors". So while it may not be nicely done, I guess its expected behaviour  if the calculation assumes just one conductor.

Thanks very much for the explanation. Will definitely look into the issue again. Cheers.

 Thanks a heap. Will look into the issue as this is an old one that I have done more than 6 years ago. Cheers

How did you do the conversion?

Every version of Prime comes with a converter.

For this converter to work you have to install parallel with prime the current version of Mathcad 15.

If you have a license for Prime, the license file is valid also for Mathcad 15.

You can download MC15 here:
