Solutions

Material database includes

• Magnetic properties and iron loss properties of ferrites (TDK, Hitachi Metals)
• Over four hundred material data items (JFE Steel, Nippon Steel)

The Coil Inductance tool calculates

• Self-inductance and mutual inductance of coils, coupling coefficient
• Inductance of reactors with superimposed DC.

The Iron Loss Calculation tool calculates

• Iron losses (hysteresis loss and eddy current loss) in a core using the material database.

Joule Loss Distribution	Iron loss Distribution

Magnetic field and thermal coupling

• Thermal analysis using the losses obtained from magnetic field or iron loss analysis as the heat source
• Two-way coupled analysis applying the temperature distribution obtained by the thermal analysis to the magnetic field analysis

Thermal Analysis Model

Magnetic field and structural coupling

• Vibration/noise analyses using the electromagnetic force obtained the magnetic field analysis as the excitation force
• Input the stress obtained from the structural analysis as a magnetic property or iron loss property for the magnetic field analysis.
