EMS 2017 SP0.0 Release

EMS 2017 is the tenth release of EMS as a Gold Certified add-in to SolidWorks.

This is a major new release of the software that incorporates several new features at the meshing and pre-processing, solving and post-processing levels. 

Below are some of the new capabilities that have been added in this release to provide users with more comprehensive simulation options and a more complete set of results.

Solvers

• High order elements support for Magnetostatic and AC Magnetic analysis ( High Accuracy study option)

• New AC electric analysis type.

• New Thermal Stress Structural coupling. 

• Enhancements to motion coupling simulation: 
  •Allow using Force/Torque and Motor in the same Solidworks Motion Analysis study coupled to EMS
  •Initial velocity motion coupled simulation
  •Gravity and Spring driven motion coupled simulation

• Enhancements to transient thermal coupling simulation. 
  •Improved Steady-state thermal (previous versions)
  •Transient thermal (time dependant - NEW)

• Enhancements to Parametric Analysis. 
  •Parameterize other EMS variables like AC magnetic frequency, Coils
  •Importing parameters from a file.
  •Thermal coupled parametric analysis

• New and faster Multi-core solvers. 

• Auto compute dielectric breakdown. 

• Added Temperature Dependant BH for Magnetostatic and AC Magnetic analysis

• Added continue run option for coupled thermal, parametric  or transient analysis without losing existing results

Meshing

• Results probing using an imported mesh file.

Viewing Results

• Viewing partial results during motion and parametric solving

• New 3D safety factor plot type for dielectric breakdown whenever user has electric field plot type.

• New 3D Field operations plot folder for magnetostatic analysis.

• 3D Plot: Animate section vs. position or orientation (move the section plane) 

• 3D Plot: Animate Iso clip plot vs. iso values 

• 3D Plot:Transparent model and vector overlay 

• 3D Plot: Plot mesh,Iso line and vectors using single color

• 3D Plot: Vector plot on surface, use constant vector size

• 3D Plot: Create in one operation a 3D plot for each time step, selected time steps or all scenarios.

• 3D Plot: Export Motion, transient or parametric plot results to excel sheet (All time steps or all scenarios)

• Magnetostatic Analysis type: Computing flux on selected faces

• Electrostatic Analysis type: Computing Total charge or Charge density on volume or surface.

 

Usability

• Convert coil type from Wound to solid or vice versa

• Enable user to flip coil entry/exit port when same face is selected.

• Convert Force/Torque type from virtual to lorentz and vice versa

• Added new materials property called "Dielectric Strength"

• Enhancements to EMS Options and User interface operations

• New easy-to-use Results table windows
