PITTSBURGH, Oct. 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- ANSYS (NASDAQ: ANSS)
is creating a powerful, design-to-validation workflow for electric
machines through an agreement with Motor Design Limited (MDL) to
distribute Motor-CAD. By combining the leading electric motor
design software tool with ANSYS' multiphysics analysis
capabilities, ANSYS is extending simulation into the design phase
of the electric machine product lifecycle.
From electric and hybrid propulsion in transportation to
electric motor-driven systems in the industrial sector to the
future of electric flight, the global demand for greater power
efficiency is driving electrification initiatives across industries
at a rapid pace. Designing more efficient electric machines and
applying them in more applications reduces environmental impact and
cost for consumers, companies and governments. The collaboration
between ANSYS and MDL creates a comprehensive design methodology to
support these applications and satisfy power efficiency
requirements.
MDL is a world leader in developing advanced software and tools
for electric machine design. The company's software, Motor-CAD,
enables design engineers to evaluate motor topologies and concepts
across the full operating range and to produce designs that are
optimized for performance, efficiency and size. With the addition
of Motor-CAD, ANSYS delivers a complete multiphysics design
workflow, from the initial stages to detailed design and
validation.
"Motor-CAD is the world-leading tool for fast multiphysics
design and sizing of electrical machines. It allows users to
efficiently calculate electromagnetic, thermal and mechanical
performance of a machine over the complete operating cycle, making
Motor-CAD ideally suited for iterative design space exploration and
optimization of concept designs," said James Goss, CEO at MDL. "Through our agreement
with ANSYS, Motor-CAD will add these valuable upfront design
capabilities to ANSYS' industry leading multiphysics simulation
technology."
"The addition of Motor-CAD to the ANSYS electric machine design
flow creates a complete end-to-end workflow for electric machine
design. Its ease of use and single application focus allow ANSYS to
expand the electric machine design workflow to the concept design
engineering teams earlier in the development process," said
Steve Pytel, senior director,
product management at ANSYS. "For deep analysis and validation, the
Motor-CAD model can be transferred to ANSYS solvers, delivering
high-fidelity, 2D and 3D analysis capabilities."
