The release of FluxMotor, a dedicated platform focusing on the pre-design of electric rotating machines has been announced by Altair. FluxMotor is part of Altair’s HyperWorks CAE Suite, which includes Flux the leading software for low frequency electromagnetic and thermal simulations.
The software tool allowsusers to design and create machines from standard or customised parts, as well as to intuitively add windings and materials to run a selection of tests and compare machine capacity.
“FluxMotor is an easy-to-use and efficient dedicated predesign tool, targeting designers from all sectors related to the electric motors field” said Grégory Michaud, Electromagnetic Engineer at SoftBank Robotics, who was involved in the testing phase of the new software together with the development team.
Appealing to a broad range of users such as designers and manufacturers of electrical rotating motors, the software allows motor specialists to define machines and assess their technical-economic potential within minutes. FluxMotor's efficient working environment ensures a better visualisation of machine performances, enabling fast and accurate computations which can easily be connected to Flux finite element software and other tools within the HyperWorks suite for more advance studies, including multiphysics optimisation capabilities.
