EMS from EMWorks Inc., is a 3D FEM simulation software, is used in this article to analyze the rotary eddy current brakes. EMS couples electromagnetic solution with mechanical analysis to compute the following results: magnetic flux, generated eddy currents, produced braking torque, eddy losses in the rotating disk, angular displacement and velocity, etc.

3D Simulation of Eddy Current Braking System using EMS and SOLIDWORKS Motion Coupling

EMS from EMWorks Inc., is a 3D FEM simulation software, is used in this article to analyze the rotary eddy current brakes. EMS couples electromagnetic solution with mechanical analysis to compute the following results: magnetic flux, generated eddy currents, produced braking torque, eddy losses in the rotating disk, angular displacement and velocity, etc.

During the simulation, two analyses will be performed:

  • Transient mechanical response is not considered. Torque versus time will be computed while the disk is rotating with a constant speed.
  • Transient mechanical response is studied. Torque versus time will be computed after applying an initial velocity to the rotating disk.
