Finite element method as an aid to machine design: a computational tool

Proceedings of the COMSOL, …, 2009

The paper provides an overview of the state of art in computational electromagnetic. There are three major ar eas like Design, optimization and material selection for the electric machines. The computational tool based on finite elements is very useful and powerful field simulation techniques available to assist in the design and performance prediction of electric machines. But the complexity in the geometry and multi material composition often hampers widespread use of these techniques. Commercial software, based on finite element Comsol Multi physics is very advanced and provides a reliable tool for 2D and 3D analysis in particular for multi-physics and optimization problems. The present work emphasized on the Recent advances in design and simulation software improving the standards of research and development.

Finite element models in electrical machine design

In the last thirty years, ongoing and fast developments of numerical techniques for the particular questions concerning electrical machinery can be noticed. This development can be seen in parallel with the efforts and success of the soft-and hardware computer industry in producing powerful tools. Computers as well as the commercial software are now ready to be applied to solve realistic numerical models of technical relevance. Of course, there are enough complicated problems and questions, which are not yet answered to a satisfactory extend. This paper is intended to focus on special problems concerned to better solution of electrical machine design and simulation questions. Particular attention is given to the topics of material modeling, winding and coil models and to the dynamic simulation of electrical machinery. Today, efficient numerical solutions can be obtained for a wide range of problems beyond the scope of analytical methods. In particular the limitations imposed by the analytical methods, their restrictions to homogeneous, linear and steady state problems can be overcome using numerical methods. E J J J J
