Electromagnetics

Based on our long-term experience in the area of plasma physics and electromagnetics, we simulate amongst others processes like induction hardening and plasma coating processes as well as electrical machines and their components, such as electric engines or electric generators.

Electrical Engines

Electrical engines – especially DC machines – are of interest not only for electric vehicles, but also for the increasing automation of industrial and domestic applications. Our simulations support you to optimize the design of electrical machines and devices.

Inductive Heating

The edges of a rectangular workpiece inside a cylindrical induction coil are heated to higher temperatures than the adjacent faces. The thermal analysis of the process yields temperature distributions within the block shown below for longitudinal sections and cross sections. Using a model, the impact of variations in the coil design on the temperature distribution is investigated. Only the optimized coil is manufactured in reality.

During inductive heating of a workpiece – e.g., for inductive hardening – the geometry of the piece could lead to undesired temperature inhomogeneities yielding unsought process outcomes. Simulation based coil design optimization leads to the ideal temperature distribution for hardening process.
