Electromagnetic Analysis & Design

Calnetix Technologies utilizes both closed-form mathematical modeling and finite element method modeling for electromagnetic analysis. For motor generator designs, closed form computer models developed at Calnetix, based on permanent magnet synchronous machine theory, provide fast and accurate tradeoff studies of machine parameters, such as number of poles, stator configuration, material selection, machine aspect ratios, etc.

Magnetic Bearing design and analysis software is based on a unique proprietary approach taking advantage of both analytical closed-form modeling and finite element analysis working in tandem in order to generate an optimal electromagnetic design and accurately predict its performance parameters.  The finite element method is utilized in conjunction with the closed form method to provide design optimization and to accurately calculate magnetic flux leakage that is essential for accurate machine performance prediction in both motor generator and magnetic bearing systems.
