Electrostatic

Field Solver

Computes the static electric field that exists in a structure given a distribution of DC voltages and static charges. A capacitance matrix, force, torque, and flux linkage may also be computed from the electric field.

Magnetostatic

Field Solver

Computes the static magnetic field that exists in a structure given a distribution of DC currents and permanent magnets. The magnetic field may be computed in structures with both nonlinear and linear materials. An inductance matrix, force, torque, and flux linkage may also be computed from the energy stored in the magnetic field.

AC Conduction

Field Solver

Computes the AC voltages and current density distribution in a material having both conductive and dielectric properties given a distribution of AC voltages. An admittance matrix and current flow may also be computed from the calculated fields.

DC Conduction Field Solver

Computes the DC currents that flow in a lossy dielectric given a distribution of DC voltages. A conductance matrix and current flow may also be computed from the computed electric field solution.

Eddy Current Field Solver

Computes the oscillating magnetic field that exists in a structure given a distribution of AC currents. Also computes current densities, taking into account all eddy current effects (including skin effects). An impedance matrix, force, torque, core loss, and current flow may also be computed from the computed field solution.

Transient Magnetic Solver

Computes transient (Time Domain) magnetic fields caused by permanent magnets, conductors, and windings supplied by voltage and/or current sources with arbitrary variation as functions of time, position and speed. It can also be coupled with external circuits. Rotational or translational motion effects can be included in the simulation.
