The software is ideal for engineering students studying topics such as electromechanical component, power-electronic and mechatronic design.
"Maxwell SV is a fantastic engineering tool and is easy to use," said Marc Cole, an engineering student at the University of Southern California.
"The Maxwell SV tutorial does an excellent job of familiarising the user with the software operation".
" The post-processor is a powerful tool that allows the student to visually understand what is happening with the fields." "Many industries, including automotive, aerospace/defence, power transmission and distribution and industrial devices, rely on Ansoft's Maxwell software to quickly and accurately design electromechanical devices, such as motors, actuators and transformers," said Mark Ravenstahl, Product Marketing Manager at Ansoft.
"For universities with electromechanical, mechatronic and power-electronic curricula, Maxwell SV is an asset to those departments for teaching and research purposes." The new version of Maxwell SV includes: * 2D Electric Field Solver * 2D DC Magnetic Solver * 2D AC Magnetic Solver * Enhanced Post-Processing Maxwell SV offers users the same unrestricted two-dimensional AC, DC magnetic and electrostatic-field solvers that are included in the commercial Maxwell 2D.
Additional capabilities found in the commercial version are transient simulation, coupled thermal analysis, parametric modelling and automated equivalent circuit generation.
