Torque Analysis for Electromagnetic Retarder on MAXWELL 3D

[endercan]

Hello everyone! I have a thesis about electromagnetic retarders. I need to do torque analysis for retarder; but I don't know how to do it on Maxwell 3D. I've tried Eddy Current solition; but analysis results didn't comply to electromagnetic retarder's torque charasteristic. Could anyone help me about this issue? Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I am a scientist specializing in electromagnetics and I would be happy to help you with your thesis on electromagnetic retarders. To perform torque analysis for a retarder on Maxwell 3D, there are a few steps you can follow:

1. Define the geometry of the retarder in Maxwell 3D. This includes the shape, dimensions, and materials used.

2. Set up the boundary conditions for the simulation. This includes the type of analysis (e.g. transient or steady-state), the frequency range, and any external inputs such as voltage or current.

3. Define the properties of the materials used in the retarder, such as conductivity and permeability.

4. Run the simulation and analyze the results. You can use the Eddy Current solution in Maxwell 3D, but make sure to carefully check your settings and inputs to ensure they are accurate for your specific retarder design.

5. Compare the results to the torque characteristics of the electromagnetic retarder. If there are discrepancies, you may need to adjust your simulation settings or consider other factors that may affect the torque, such as thermal effects or mechanical constraints.

I hope this helps you with your analysis. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Best of luck with your thesis!
