Column: “An engineer’s diary”

The column “An engineer’s diary” by Prof. Miller is available on the JMAG website.
It is updated once a month, and the following columns have been published.

[No. 60] Mystery, Magic and Mappings
Mystery is not confined to novels. We have it in abundance in engineering. I remember as an apprentice in the 1960s working alongside a service engineer on a new DC drive system, and he had some commissioning documents with control system diagrams and circuit diagrams. On one of these I noticed some hand-written calculations containing expressions like R + jX. This was my first encounter with complex numbers on the factory floor, and it was truly a mystery. I asked the service engineer the meaning of R + jX, and he ‘explained’ that j was the square root of minus one, and left it there. The mystery deepened!…Read more

JMAG Open Interface

We have updated our site introducing case studies of linked analysis.
In recent years, the sophistication of electrical equipment design is required. As known there is a limit to the design of magnetic circuits alone, therefore multifaceted evaluations such as structure, vibration, heat, and control are required at the same time.It is more efficient to perform coupled analysis by linking different software where they have their own strength in the respective physical phenomenon rather than to adhere to one CAE software.

Case Studies
On the same page, we also introduce case studies from JMAG Users Conference Proceedings every week.
Case Studies of the Week:
This is a case of induction heating analysis using JMAG multi-purpose file export and two-way coupling with STAR-CCM+. Magnetic field analysis is run in JMAG based on the temperature distribution received from STAR-CCM+. The heat generation distribution is returned to STAR-CCM+ for fluid analysis. The usability that this has for analysis that accounts for the temperature dependency of materials is checked.

Please access the page above to view the case study.

JMAG Users Conference & Training 2023 In Germany

This is to announce that the Europe JMAG distributor POWERSYS will be holding the JMAG Users Conference in Germany.
The conference will be held over three days; the first day will be Training, and JMAG Users Conference will consist of the second day and the third day.
The Conference is a premier event that brings together EV automotive professionals and EM design experts to discuss the latest advances in the field of electric motor design using finite element analysis (FEA) and multi-systems simulation software.
Come join us!

Date:
-JMAG ADVANCED TRAINING: October 9th from 9:00am to 4:00pm
-Advanced eMotor Design Conference (JMAG Users Conference): October 10th-11th from 9:00am to 4:30pm
