Multiphysics Modeling of Electrical Motors
To reduce global warming and the associated effects, the transportation and energy sectors are adopting measures to make different applications potentially fossil free. This has led to a surge in demand for electric machines and the related design and development efforts. The designs of these electrical machines need to meet various specifications, including efficiency and power density requirements. A multiphysics-based simulation and modeling approach plays a critical role in accomplishing the design needs and significantly reducing the lead time to market.
The COMSOL Multiphysics software and its add-on modules provide the capability needed to model the multiphysics phenomena involved in electrical motors, including electromagnetics, thermal, structural mechanics, and fluid flow. The most common motor types, synchronous permanent magnet and asynchronous motors, as well as more recently researched alternatives such as synchronous reluctance or axial flux motors, can be modeled and optimized in COMSOL Multiphysics(R). In this webinar, we will demonstrate the capabilities of the software for electrical motor modeling and the optimization techniques available for accelerating product development time.
