Electric Motors Cooling: Finite Element & CFD based Multiphysics simulation
FEA & CFD Based Simulation Design Analysis Virtual prototyping MultiObjective Optimization
Our FEA and CFD based multiphysics simulation design provides electronics cooling simulation products for chip, package and board thermal analysis as well as thermo-mechanical stress analysis. Multiphysics simulation tools help our customers to enhance reliability of the entire electronic system by managing excessive heat that can otherwise lead to increasing leakage and electromigration failure. Electric motors cooling becomes critical as we want to move to higher power, high-efficiency equipment.
Excess heat is produced that can greatly reduce efficiency and in extreme cases, permanent magnets can even reach their limit and become demagnetized. For such calculation we analyze the power losses and then use this information for a detailed thermal analysis. These results are used to predict the temperature rise within the motor configuration based on given operating conditions and to determine appropriate electric motor cooling mechanisms using advanced FEA and CFD based Thermal simulation tools. Many different forms of electric motor cooling can be simulated, including:
- Natural or forced air cooling
- Water cooling
- Spray cooling
Multiphysics Simulation: Electromagnetic–Structural Dynamics–Fluid–Acoustics
By coupling the electromagnetic field solution with other solvers, we examine coupled physics phenomena and achieve the highest fidelity solution to eliminate reliability problems and design safe and effective products. Combination of advanced FEA and computational tools lead to special platform that let us to manages the data transfer between physics solutions and handles solver interactions, so we can set up and analyze complex coupled-physics behaviors such as:
- Electromagnetic–Structural
- Electromagnetic–Structural with stress and strain coupling effects on on magnetic properties
- Electromagnetic–Fluids interaction with coupling of CFD and Electromagnetic Solvers
- Electromagnetic–Structural–Fluids
- Electromagnetic–Structural Dynamics–Acoustics
Noise, Vibration & Harshness – NVH for Electric Motors
To optimize for NVH, our engineers use the forces from the EM analysis to perform advanced vibro-acoustic simulations. The forces are mapped to evaluate the structural dynamics response of the motor.
Modal and harmonic stress coupling responses are important for simulating the NVH of an electric motor and for proper vibro-acoustic design of electric vehicles (EVs). The harmonic analyses generate absolute magnitudes of vibrations and waterfall diagrams to get a complete picture of the motor’s acoustic profile.
