Electrical machines design

Magnetic field, torque, eddy currents, temperature rise and structural stress analysis of DC motors, induction motors, synchronous motors and switched reluctance motors.

Available Analysis Modules

QuickField can be applied to many aspects of electrical machine design:

DC Magnetics

Simulation of DC motors, switched reluctance motors, synchronous motors and their components; computing magnetic saturation, electromagnetic force and torque.

AC Magnetics

Simulation of AC and induction motors: rotating magnetic field, eddy current distribution.

Transient Magnetics

Analysis of starting and switch-off processes; time-varying magnetic field and current distribution; dynamic inductance calculation; non-sinusoidal currents.

Heat Transfer (coupled with magnetic field analysis)

Temperature distribution, assessing local overheating.

Stress Analysis (coupled with magnetic field analysis)

Stress and strain distribution in motor components, failure analysis.
