It solves static, frequency-domain and time-varying electric fields. Maxwell offers specialized design interfaces for electric machines and power converters. Maxwell offers trusted simulation of low-frequency electromagnetic fields in industrial components. It includes 3-D/2-D magnetic transient, AC electromagnetic, magnetostatic, electrostatic, DC conduction and electric transient solvers to accurately solve for field parameters including force, torque, capacitance, inductance, resistance and impedance. Capabilities include: - 2D and 3D EM Solvers - Bi-Directional CAD Integration - Reduced-Order Modeling - Advanced Magnetic Modeling - Electric Drive Modeling - Slice-Only Solving - Automatic Adaptive Meshing - Co-sim Transient Performance Show More * * * ### 50.0 Nps Score Already have Ansys Maxwell? ### All Ansys Maxwell Discussions Search Most CommentedMost HelpfulCommon QuestionsNewest All DiscussionsDiscussions with CommentsCommon QuestionsDiscussions without Comments FilterFilter Filter byExpand/Collapse Sort by Most Commented Most Helpful Common Questions Newest Filter by All Discussions Discussions with Comments Common Questions Discussions without Comments ![Pinned by G2 as a common question](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Pinned by G2 as a common question") G2 Pinned by G2 as a common question • over 3 years ago More Options - [ # How do you simulate Ansys magnetic field? ](/discussions/how-do-you-simulate-ansys-magnetic-field) How do you simulate Ansys magnetic field?
