Error in Simulating ETD 39 transformer using magnetic.olb

Hello Sir,

I am simulating a power supply in pspice. For the same i require to model a ETD39 core transformer. 

I am using normal inductors with its value same as primary and secondary turns each respectively. For allocating core property i used ETD39 core from the magnetic library and assigned the reference of the Inductors (L1 and L2, other four L3-L6 are left blank as I do not need them) in the property editor of 'K' enclosed in box. Its is giving error:

 ERROR(ORPSIM-15113): Model ETD39_3C90 used by Kn_K2 is undefined.

 

When I assign the L3 -L4 with L20 it gives me a diiferent error:

ERROR(ORPSIM-16515): Inductor part of this K device
+ L_L20 L_L20 0.99 ETD39_3C90.

Request you to help me out on this and simulate the transformer.

You don't say which version of the tools, or which license, you are using. The "undefined" message means that the model definition cannot be found for the coupling part, possibly because you are using a version, or license, of the tools that does not support the simulation parts from the Magnetics library. (Also, having duplicate windings probably won't help)
