MagneForce Releases Brush Commutated Permanent Magnet Machine Simulators

Date: March 20, 2004

MagneForce Software Systems, Inc. releases a software simulation package for Brush Commutated Permanent Magnet Machines. The program known as BCPM uses MagneForces’ proven techniques of parameterized geometry modeling, easy winding and commutator description, powerful finite element magnetic analysis coupled to a Spice circuit solver and parameterized output. In addition to the Spice circuit solver BCPM contains a transient solver that is capable of predicting machine transient behavior. BCPM is a complete motor design environment that allows characterization of the entire machine and drive circuit without having to construct a prototype. The software automatically computes difficult to predict parameters such as permanent magnet demagnetization, iron loss density and cogging torque.
MagneForce Software Systems specializes in producing simulation software for rotating electric machines using finite elements for magnetic field calculations together with various time based techniques for circuit simulations. This approach allows MagneForce to accurately compute all harmonics and non-linearities whether they be magnetic, spatial or time based.
