Low-frequency electromagnetic and thermal simulation of motors and electromechanical devices with Simcenter MAGNET in Simcenter 3D.

This seven-page solution guide covers Simcenter 3D for low-frequency electromagnetics, which uses the Simcenter MAGNET solver inside the Simcenter 3D environment. It explains how electromagnetic and thermal simulation of electromechanical devices can stay linked to parametrised CAD geometry and connect with other disciplines such as NVH and CFD.

What the document covers

  • Simcenter 3D Low Frequency Electromagnetics for building Simcenter MAGNET models from Designcenter NX (called NX in the document) geometry, with magnetic materials, coils, boundary conditions and an integrated circuit editor
  • Static, time-harmonic and transient solvers in 2D and 3D, including motion of any number of components and automatic airgap remeshing
  • Advanced material models such as hysteresis and permanent magnet demagnetisation, backed by an electromagnetic materials library
  • The Simcenter MAGNET thermal solver for steady-state and transient temperatures driven by winding and core losses, including eddy current and hysteresis losses
  • Applications in electric and hybrid vehicle powertrains, aerospace electrical systems, transformers and generators, induction heating, household appliances and wireless charging
  • A capabilities chart for meshing, boundary conditions, electric field solvers, loads and post-processing results

Who it is for

Electric motor designers, electromagnetic engineers and simulation teams working on e-machines, actuators, transformers and power electronics.
