Claw-Pole Alternator This gallery page showcases the automatic current distribution calculation feature of MagNet. Some of the features that this page looks at are how MagNet uses its multi-segment sweep feature to create the stator windings, and how a Boolean intersection was performed to cut off sections of the coil passing through the two symmetry planes.

Disk Induction Machine View the capabilities of the 3D Transient with Motion solver in a unique and truly 3D machine--an axial flux disk induction machine. The flux flows parallel to the axis of the rotor. Currents are induced in a flat disc-shaped aluminum rotor element. The 3D Transient with Motion solver was used to model both a run-up to synchronous speed and also to create a torque-speed curve.

MagLev Startup This gallery page demonstrates a variation of the MagLev suspension system that implements the "Magnetic River" concept; it is based on repulsion forces from dynamically induced eddy currents. The idea is to use the same set of coils for both levitation and propulsion. In the motor example shown on this page, the coil structure is in a transverse flux configuration similar to that used in the prototype NASA MagLev for a shuttle launch system.

Permanent Magnet Stepper Motor The damping due to bearing friction is taken into account in this simulation of a permanent magnet stepper motor. The motor is made of a stator with eccentric pole faces and a rotor made of samarium cobalt permanent magnet (magnetized in a fixed direction) that rotates in steps of 180 degrees. This page displays some quantities of interest to the user such as force/torque, position, velocity, and acceleration.
