What is new to support you in your daily job

Discover Flux 10.4 new features in our detailed presentation, and the new confortable post-processing in our detailed video (20mn) – short version (8mn)

Geometry and mesh improvements
  • Improvement of CAD import
    .     Updated with the new Acis R21 SP1 (ProE wildFire 5,…)
    . CAD import process improved to take into account users previous difficulties
    reinforced link to mechanical studies to save time and avoid mistakes
  • Automatic geometry reconstruction, 2D & 3D
    Use symmetries and periodicities for fast computations, but keep a full view of the device in pre- and post-processing : more representative result images for your presentations.
  • Automatic meshing tool becomes the standard option for 2D models
  • Motor Overlays compatible with all the SPEED software libraries
    (BPM, IM, DCM, SRD)
News in physical description
  •  Visualization of magnetic material curve 
         Estimation and validation of the material characteristic at a glance
  • Thin conduction regions can now be part of an electric circuit as a solid conductor
    A powerful modelling tool  for EMC studies available in 3D  steady-state AC magnetic applications
  • Flux and Simulink co-simulation
    Ideal to design the device with its drive & control. Available for transient applications in 2D, 3D & skew.
Solving improvements
  • Solving acceleration : 
    New multi-core computation, coupled with pre-resolution acceleration and faster sparse matrix construction
    Take advantage of 100% of your computer power.
    Especially interesting for big 3D models. The greatest accelerations will be encountered with cases involving circuit coupling with many coils and solid conductors.
  • Error criterion management
    Special tool which indicates where the mesh should be refined in priority to improve the computation. Provides application and region specific criteria to measure the error.
    Provides local maps and a global value to monitor the error for all the applications.
New comfortable post-processing functions

  • New post-processing :
     Get yours results without effort in a few clicks
    . One-click Isolines and Isovalues display with sharpness adjustment slider
    . Animations                                                   . Spatial Group
    . Boundary Arrows                                          . Vectors along a Path
    . Quick & easy access to local quantities            . 3D Curves      
    . Full Units Management                                   . Full Automatic Report Macro
    . Superimposition of 2D Curves                        . 2D Curve import
