Analysis of gear tooth sensor

Design of electromechanical equipment, such as motors and solenoids, requires electromagnetic simulation software specifically designed for magnetic analysis which inherently includes coils and windings and the ability to do transient analysis. For design of sensors, magnetic shielding, or specific applications like NMR, very high accuracy of the field may be required.

INTEGRATED's CAE software offers the Finite Element Method (FEM) and Boundary Element Method (BEM) to specifically cater to this wide variety of applications in the magnetic analysis field.

The geometry of the magnetic problem can be created with the geometric modeler built into the magnetic field solvers or can be imported from any of the major CAD vendors. More importantly, the geometry can be changed parametrically to optimize a design for robustness, weight, size and, of course, cost.

For some electromagnetic or electromechanical applications, Eddy currents are generated intentionally, such as induction heating. In most cases, however, unwanted heat loss occurs due to Eddy currents. In any event the heat generated by the Eddy currents can be used by the INTEGRATED’s thermal analysis modules to determine the temperature throughout the device.

Multi-physics combined with different solver technology provide the optimal solution for any electromagnetic or electrothermal problem.
