Developer’s Description

Model and compute spatial distribution of the magnetic field.

MagCAD is a simple low-cost software tool for computation of spatial distribution of the magnetic field created by permanent magnets and electric coils at presence of nonlinear ferromagnetic materials in cylindrically symmetrical systems. The magnetic field is calculated by numerical solution of the equation for vector potential on a uniform grid in two dimensions.

MagCAD main features: - Proven realistic results with real nonlinear magnetics for the toy price; - Integrated graphic editor; - Immediate field visualization; - Probe tool with the field components indication and live cross-sections; - No restrictions on shape and size of magnets, coils and ferromagnetics; - Possibilities to print, save and export both you project and the calculated field.
