Electromagnetic simulation tools will almost always give a result for any problem after pressing the run button. But is the result accurate? A methodology is introduced to establish the best practices for using the Ansys 2D Extractor and HFSS tools that include recommendations for the setup conditions, balancing accuracy, and computation time. With this methodology, an error in the absolute accuracy when solving for some electrical features can be achieved to better than 0.3%.
