5.1 What is Loss analysis? Back to top
Loss analysis may as well be the most useful tool of PowerEsim. It sorts the losses of each user added or automatically loaded component from the converter, and gives a breakdown on the type of losses they are. Users can improve efficiency or cost just by choosing different components from different manufacturers.

5.2 How to start Loss Analysis as a Standalone Tool Back to top
Click on "Loss " on the left main menu to start Loss Analysis.


5.3 Introduction to Interface (Standalone Tool) Back to top
The user must first add at least one part into the design.
To add parts into the design, click [+Part] in the top bar. For details, please refer to Session 14--Add Parts.

There are shortcuts to start a design from choosing topology before using this tool.
To start a design using another method, please refer to Session 2.2--Start a power supply design.

Please refer to Session 9.3.7--Top bar.


5.3.2 Component List Back to top
All added components are shown in the component list.
Total Loss of whole design is shown in the first row of the component list.

To change the components, click the blue button with the designator on the left to enter the component finder page.

Sorting order can be changed by clicking the column heading.

Enable [Compare this result] to show the Stored Losses column.

Enable [Hidden Part] to select parts that you want to hide.
After selecting, click [Apply] to update.
