Axial flux motor core loss model simulation

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on simulating a 350W axial flux motor using Ansys Maxwell 3D, specifically targeting the calculation of core and copper losses. The student has successfully obtained the back electromotive force (BEMF) but is facing challenges in determining core losses, as the available data is limited to 50 and 60 Hz, while the motor operates at 500-600 Hz. Participants are encouraged to share their progress and provide guidance on how to extrapolate core loss data for higher frequencies. The request for assistance highlights the need for effective simulation techniques in electric motor design. Overall, the thread emphasizes collaboration and knowledge sharing in the field of electric motor simulation.

Hello,
I'm a student, working on project related to electric motor. Currently I'm trying to simulate a 350W power axial flux motor on Ansys Maxwell 3D. Until now I have been able to get BEMF of motor, further I'm trying to find losses in motor like core losses & copper losses. The core loss data is only available at 50 & 60 Hz for the material I chose for core but the motor will be operating at 500-600 Hz. So can anyone help me out how should I proceed to get core losses & copper losses of motor in Ansys Maxwell 3D software.

Thread 'Have I solved this structural engineering equation correctly?'

Hi all, I have a structural engineering book from 1979. I am trying to follow it as best as I can. I have come to a formula that calculates the rotations in radians at the rigid joint that requires an iterative procedure. This equation comes in the form of: $$ x_i = \frac {Q_ih_i + Q_{i+1}h_{i+1}}{4K} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i-1} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i+1} $$ Where: ## Q ## is the horizontal storey shear ## h ## is the storey height ## K = (6G_i + C_i + C_{i+1}) ## ## G = \frac {I_g}{h} ## ## C...
