Description

Ansys Maxwell serves as a powerful electromagnetic field solver tailored for electric machines, transformers, wireless charging systems, permanent magnet latches, actuators, and various electromechanical devices. It adeptly addresses the challenges of static, frequency-domain, and time-varying electric and magnetic fields. Additionally, Maxwell comes equipped with specialized design interfaces specifically for electric machines and power converters. With the capabilities of Maxwell, users can accurately analyze the nonlinear and transient behaviors of electromechanical components, as well as their impact on drive circuits and control system designs. By utilizing Maxwell’s state-of-the-art electromagnetic field solvers in conjunction with integrated circuit and systems simulation technologies, engineers can gain insights into the performance of electromechanical systems well before any physical prototypes are created. Moreover, Maxwell is recognized for delivering reliable simulations of low-frequency electromagnetic fields pertinent to industrial components, making it a valuable tool in the design and analysis process. This comprehensive approach not only enhances design efficiency but also aids in minimizing potential issues during the development stage.

Description

Electromagnetic sensors are composed of two main components: a "front-end" that both generates and detects electromagnetic waves via a subsystem known as the Receiver/Exciter (REX), and a "back-end" responsible for signal and data processing, which is generally carried out through software. Each of these subsystems must be developed independently before they can be seamlessly integrated. The process of creating the complete sensor becomes increasingly complex and time-consuming due to unforeseen challenges that arise during integration testing. This complexity largely stems from the interdependencies between the subsystems that are not easily testable during their individual development phases. As a result, any necessary software updates, configuration adjustments, waveform modifications, and technology upgrades can incur significantly higher costs since they often require on-site verification with the actual front-end hardware. To mitigate these issues, the Virtual Receiver/Exciter (VREX) utilizes a simulated front-end, thus streamlining the testing and integration process. By employing a virtual model, developers can identify and address potential integration issues much earlier in the development cycle.
