Contact an Expert AC Electromagnetic Simulation Advanced Modeling of Electromagnetic Materials Effects of incorporating hysteresis in the simulation of electromagnetic devices Modeling of circuits and systems Electric Field Simulations Simulation of Electromagnetic Motion Transient electromagnetic simulation AC electrom agnetic simulations are based on a single frequency, which reduces simulation time. With this approach, you can simulate electromagnetic fields in and around conductors, in the presence of isotropic materials that can be conductive, magnetic, or both. This takes into account displacement currents, eddy currents and proximity effects, which are important in hotspot analysis . The accuracy of low-frequency electromagnetic simulations is highly dependent on material data. Simcenter's modeling of advanced electromagnetic materials takes into account non-linearities, temperature dependencies, demagnetization of permanent magnets, loss of hysteresis and anisotropic effects. This makes it possible to analyze effects such as demagnetization on permanent magnets to check their lifetime, analyze frequency-dependent losses in thin parts while reducing solution time, and account for all losses for an accurate energy balance. Hysteresis modeling in Simcenter MAGNET software allows engineers and scientists to model a real-world scenario, incorporating the effects of iron losses in the simulation of low-frequency electromagnetic waves. Accurate representation of a ferromagnetic material by the complete BH loop , rather than the BH curve, affects local quantities. System-level or model-based analysis requires accurate sub-component models to account for local interactions and transients that affect the overall behavior of the system. Simcenter's low-frequency electromagnetism includes features such as native circuit simulations, connections for co-simulation, and export of 1D system models to Simcenter Flomaster, Simcenter Amesim, and other platforms. Finite element method for electric fields can be used to simulate static electric fields, ac electric fields and transient electric fields. It can also simulate the current flow (which is the static current density) produced by DC voltages on electrodes in contact with conductive materials. Electric field simulations are typically used for high voltage applications to predict insulation and winding failures, lightning impulse simulations, partial discharge analysis, and impedance analysis. Electromagnetic simulation of transient fields can include motion. It is possible to simulate rotational, linear and arbitrary movements with six degrees of freedom (X, Y, Z, Roll , Pitch and Yaw) for an unlimited number of moving components. Mechanical effects include viscous friction, inertia, mass, springs, and gravitation, as well as motion restrictions imposed by mechanical stops. Arbitrary loading forces can be specified as a function of position, velocity and time. Currents induced due to motion are taken into account. Allows the simulation of complex problems involving sources and outputs of current or voltage in an arbitrary, time-varying manner with non-linearity in materials and frequency-dependent effects. This includes oscillations in electromechanical devices, demagnetization in permanent magnets, switching effects, eddy current induced torque, skin and proximity effects. ⇐ Voltar para Produtos

Structural analysis allows the testing of multiple design variations in reduced time, with a direct impact on “Time to Market”, reducing the number of prototypes for design validation. (Cost reduction; more quality; Predictive engineering; linear and non-linear, static and dynamic; fatigue study) Structural Analysis Linear and non-linear structural analyzes do not predict failures due to fatigue. They calculate the response of a design subjected to a given environment of constraints and loads. If the analysis assumptions are observed and the calculated voltages are within allowable limits, the safety of the environment will be confirmed no matter how many times the load is applied. The results of static, dynamic, linear or non-linear analysis can be used as a basis for defining a fatigue study. The number of cycles required for fatigue failure to occur depends on material and stress fluctuations. Most mechanical components are subjected to cyclic loading and subject to fatigue failure. Several studies on this issue were carried out to identify the percentage of mechanical failures that are caused by this phenomenon, and it can be said that this number is 50 to 90% of all mechanical failures. Tools focused on analysis are capable of predicting, virtually, without the need for physical prototypes, the behavior of structures and components, showing areas with excessive deformations and mechanical stresses, allowing the experimentation of design changes with low cost and unparalleled speed. Contact an Expert Project Cost Reduction More Quality Predictive Engineering When developing new products and solutions, staying ahead is essential.

Automation of repetitive tasks; find design flaws in the early stages; manage complexity; eventually, the costs of customizing the cabling project can be higher than that of making a few complete harnesses that meet several sets of options. Cabling and Electrical Harness A harness has a wide variety of cables and each of them is responsible for managing and distributing a part of the automobile's energy. As an example, a popular car has 400 cables, while a premium one has 800. The difference comes from the amount of equipment installed in the car. The more modern the car, the more drivers will be needed for all systems to work perfectly. In general, a car has 700 meters of cable. The harness is also separated by colors that are determined according to the assemblers, which serve to identify the function of that harness. Contact an Expert Automation of repetitive tasks Find design flaws early in the early stages Manage complexity With several project automation tools, it is possible to automatically estimate the amount of wires, cables and insulators, create purchase order tables, create visual aids for the operator, among others. Simulations during design allow errors in dimensioning components and connections to be found in their initial stages. Thus, they reduce the need to build prototypes, costs and development time. Due to the increasing number of electrical sensors and actuators in vehicles, the complexity, weight and cost of cabling projects is increasing. Also, by consumer demand, the need for mass customization of the automotive production line was presented, several cabling options are designed for each additional set.
