I am currently running NSC using Zemax version 2023 R1.00 . I need to check the total power after going through a light guide and the lost energy (errors) due to geometry errors occurring. However, I use the exact same file in another PC with Zemax version 21.2, I got a totally different result.
With 2023 R1.0 - I obtain 1.66E-2 Watts
With 21.2 - I obtain 6.1158E-2 Watts
The detector view also gave me different result which confuses me. Is it due to different Zemax version handle geometry error that’s why I am getting different result ?
How does different Zemax version affecting these differences ?
Thank you in advance for your help
