The latest version of the MagNet 6 electromagnetics simulation package from Infolytica features a full motion-solving capability for translationally symmetric and axisymmetric devices.
Solve thermal problems with dedicated software
ThermNet is designed to solve thermal problems involving conduction, convection, and radiation, and allows 2D problems (XY and RZ) to be described and steady state and transient analyses performed
MagNet is electromagnetic field simulation software based on FEA, and is most commonly used for designing devices such as motors, transformers, induction heating and other electromechanical applications in numerous industries.
MotorSolve IM and SRM share the same interface as MotorSolve BLDC.
The adaptable rotor and stator templates use a sophisticated validation mechanism which verifies each change to the global design.

The new versions of MagNet and MotorSolve BLDC feature an improved core loss calculation method which computes the hysteresis plus the anomalous and eddy current losses in the lamination and presents them to the user as two separate fields.
In a simulation, the new core loss calculation method for eddy currents takes different harmonics into account and, for hysteresis loss it takes into account the minor loops.
MotorSolve BLDC Version 2 includes a new sizing feature which computes an initial value for several parameters related to the size of the machine based on general design parameters and several additional rotor/stator templates.
MagNet 6.26 and MotorSolve BLDC, SRM and IM are now available for PCs running 32bit or 64bit Microsoft Windows 2000, XP and Vista.
