Free 3D software for calculating force of electromagnet?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on finding free 3D software for calculating the force of an electromagnet for DIY projects. Users recommend using Freemat, a MATLAB clone, for calculations, and Pyzo, an integrated development environment (IDE) that combines Python 3 libraries for scientific programming and graphing. These tools provide the necessary functionality to perform calculations and visualize results effectively.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of electromagnet design principles
  • Familiarity with Freemat for mathematical computations
  • Basic knowledge of Python programming
  • Experience with Pyzo for scientific graphing
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore Freemat documentation for advanced mathematical functions
  • Learn Python libraries such as NumPy and Matplotlib for enhanced graphing capabilities
  • Investigate other open-source software options for electromagnet simulations
  • Research best practices in electromagnet configuration and optimization
USEFUL FOR

DIY enthusiasts, electrical engineers, and students involved in electromagnet design and simulation projects.

Hello!

I need to build an electromagnet for my DIY project. But I have a problem with choosing right configuration.

But I have not found any open-source or student-license software for this goal...

It would be great if someone could post some links to that kind of software.

To do the calculations and display the results graphically there's freemat, a simple MATLAB clone and Pyzo an IDE that packages some Python 3 libraries together for doing scientific programming and graphing.
