Simcenter MAGNET capabilities
- AC electromagnetic simulation
Simcenter MAGNET uses single-frequency AC electromagnetic simulations for efficient analysis of fields around current-carrying conductors, considering important effects like displacement currents and eddy-current for hotspot analysis.
- Advanced electromagnetic material modeling
Simcenter's advanced material modeling enhances low-frequency electromagnetic simulations, ensuring accuracy in analyzing effects like permanent magnet demagnetization and frequency-dependent losses.
- Electric field simulations
The finite element method in electric field simulations covers static, AC, and transient fields, including current flow from DC voltages. Useful for high-voltage applications, it predicts insulation failures, lightning impulses, partial discharge, and impedance issues.
- Electromagnetic-motion simulation
Simcenter simulates transient electromagnetic fields with six degrees of freedom for unlimited moving components, including mechanical effects and induced currents.
- Transient electromagnetic simulation
Simcenter allows simulation of complex scenarios with time-varying current, nonlinearity, and frequency-dependent effects, including electromechanical oscillations, demagnetization, switching effects, and eddy-current-induced torque. Thermal-electromagnetic co-simulation is possible with Simcenter MAGNET's thermal solver.
- Steady-state and transient temperature distribution
Simcenter MAGNET simulates steady-state and transient temperature distribution, considering losses in windings and the core, including eddy current and hysteresis losses. The thermal solver uses finite elements for quick evaluation of electric device thermal performance.
