MotorSolve IM’s new results module can predict the performance of an induction machine based on computations from the automated finite element based simulations. We refer to MotorSolve as an automated FEA design tool since the user doesn’t have to worry about the mesh or any typical post-processing tasks associated with FEA software said Chad Ghalamzan, Marketing Manager at Infolytica Corporation.
These results include charts (torque, power, etc), field plots (flux, losses, etc) and waveforms (currents,etc) amongst other quantities and reporting features. The results module includes several different analysis methods which give the user control over the speed and accuracy of the simulation, including: Equivalent circuit analysis of induction machine based on no load/locked rotor tests; Motion analysis including saturation at each rotor step
MotorSolve IM accurately accounts for important effects such as leakage inductances, slotting, deep bar effects and skewing.
MotorSolve now supports exporting designs to VHDL-AMS, a popular format supported by most popular software for system simulations, such as System Vision©.
