IPM Motor with PWM vector control in PSIM
The vector control of an Interior Permanent Magnet (IPM) motor is simulated here using the combined power of PSIM, a circuit and systems simulator from PowerSim, and MagNet. PSIM simulates a rotor speed feedback loop which generates PWM phase voltages. A transient motion solve running concurrently in MagNet uses these to calculate the coil currents, which are fed back to PSIM.

IPM Motor with vector control in Simulink®
The combined power of MagNet and Simulink is demonstrated using the vector control of an Interior Permanent Magnet (IPM) motor. Simulink simulates a rotor speed feedback loop which outputs the commanded phase voltages. A transient motion solve running concurrently in MagNet uses these to calculate the coil currents, which are fed back to Simulink.

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.
