Flux: 2D and 3D thermal & electromagnetic FEM analysis

- Induction, Conduction and Dielectric Heating

- Heating, Brazing, Hardenning, Welding, Sealing, Cooling,…

Industrial process & materials, Automotive & Transport, Power T&D, Houseold appliances,…

- Design heating process and optimize its efficiency ( frequency, power, inductors,…)

- Virtual prototyping of inductors

- Study the temperature distribution in a component after a heat treatment, - Evaluate the materials sensitivity to temperature variations (non linear dependence)

- Compare different processes together (static, scanning, single shot,…)

- Temperature: Color map distribution in the whole device, variation versus time

- Eddy current distribution and Joule losses, Thermal losses

- Materials: Visualize locally the evolution of properties (permeability, conductivity, specific heat, thermal conductivity) versus temperature

- Flux density and magnetic field 

- Electromagnetic forces

- A unique set of “coupled” applications (magnetic-thermal; electric-thermal; dielectric-thermal) 

- Thin region models allowing to reduce mesh size for high frequency surface heating process 

- Mixed mesh generators: Precise and economic mapped mesh generators adapted to eddy current distributions in the skin depth 

- Electromechanical coupling in 2D and 3D to account for the motion of a part during the computation (scanning)

- Advanced CAD import capabilities: from various formats STEP, IGES, DXF, STL, SAT, Inventor, Pro_E, CATIA V4, CATIA V5,…
