Getting Started with Maxwell and RMxprt

Maxwell is an interactive software package that uses finite element analysis (FEA) to solve three-dimensional (3D) and two-dimensional (2D) electrostatic, magnetostatic, eddy current, and transient problems.

Using Maxwell, you can compute

• Static electric fields, forces, torques, and capacitances caused by voltage distributions and charges.
• Static magnetic fields, forces, torques, and inductances caused by DC currents, static external magnetic fields, and permanent magnets.
• Time-varying magnetic fields, forces, torques, and impedances caused by AC currents and oscillating external magnetic fields.
• Transient magnetic fields caused by electrical sources and permanent magnets.

RMxprt™ is an interactive software package used for designing and analyzing electrical machines.

Maxwell and Rmxprt are integrated into the Ansys Electronics Desktop.
