Flux Leaps Ahead of the Competition



BALLSTON SPA, N.Y., Feb. 14 /-- Magsoft Corporation announces the release of Flux Version 9.2. Flux tools are Finite Element Method (FEM) based CAE software packages for the analysis and design of electromagnetic and electromechanical devices, applications, and processes.

The new Flux release features PC-based functionality in a common interface for both of Magsoft's flagship products Flux2D and Flux3D. The common interface reduces the learning curve for new users and provides them with PC application continuity and interactivity. Additionally, care was taken so that the technology, which is based on Java and Python, allows for future LINUX and 64-bit compatibility as well as cluster or super computer processing capability.

Flux Version 9 showcases improvements in the interface providing easy access to the following capabilities:
o Parameter controls for
-- Geometry shape, location, and position
-- Mesh distribution
-- Physical properties
-- Electrical inputs
o External circuit and drive connection for conductors
o Solid body motion coupling for linear, rotational, and pivotal [3D only] displacements
o Mechanical component coupling
o Transient solver including motion-induced eddy currents
o Direct coupling of Flux2D with MATLAB/Simulink

Users can experiment and simulate device behavior with flexibility and power that is unequaled in the CAE marketplace. All parameter definitions can be mathematical expressions containing anything from scalar values to complex algebraic and trigonometric relationships. This functionality makes virtual prototype design a reality today.

Several technology enhancements also accompany the new interface. The most significant of these being pivotal solid body motion coupling in Flux3D. Now when motion-induced eddy currents are prevalent in device behavior, a user can accurately model the physics.

According to Philippe Wendling, VP at Magsoft, "The V9 technology allows our users to more easily take advantage of the power behind Flux. In the past our pioneering formulations allowed our users to be innovators in design. I can only imagine what they will accomplish now that this technology is more readily at their fingertips."
