FINECone™ Reference Manual is the reference manual of FINECone, which introduces the basic functions of FINECone, including defining geometry, defining material properties, defining electrical parameters, defining lumped parameters, defining frequency range, calculating results, etc.
FINECone is a software tool designed to provide functions for all major tasks in the simulation of a loudspeaker driver. It allows users to define geometry by DXF file import, set material properties, define electrical and acoustical parameters, and perform automatic calculations within a specified frequency range.
The manual details how to use the FINECone Wizard to guide users through the Finite Element Modelling process, from basic project information to advanced settings. It also explains specific requirements for DXF input, such as using AutoCAD v12 format with only lines and arcs, and provides instructions on defining material properties like Young's Modulus and mass density.
FINECone supports only AutoCAD 12 (DXF)-format, as this is the industry standard.
The cone thickness is not set in the DXF file but is specified later in the Material Properties section.
