Circular Dependancy / Goal Seek

I want to create a circular dependancy in a model but this results in an error when attempting to solve.
I am investigating mutual inductance and need to consider an open circuit case for my receive coil. For a 2D axisymmetric case, it is suggested in this COMSOL paper that you reduce the current in the receive coil to 0 by means of an equal and opposite external current.
"www.comsol.asia/conference2009/europe/downloadpaper/id/3094/"
However, calculating the cancelling current requires an iterative process as reducing the current in the receive coil increases the current in the transmit coil.
How can i get COMSOL to essentailly goal seek in this sort of manner and find the value of cancelling current required for a net current of 0?
Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
Dave.
