Electric Machines

Modern motors and generators require optimal use of materials to produce the maximum possible torque in the smallest size and lowest costs.

Simutech Group can help to verify the motor design concept, estimate the motor performance and optimize the design.

The non-linear material properties, eddy current effect, proximity effect, hysteresis, and demagnetization are all covered. The motor performance can be estimated in a realistic system with complicated driver circuit and customized mechanical loads.

We study the structural vibrations caused by the magnetic loads and the sound produced by these vibrations to simulate noise for NVH applications. Thermal models are used for temperature dependent effects on magnets. The motor performance can be extracted into reduced order models to study the effects of detailed controller models.
