The version v1.07.02 of MANATEE software dedicated to the electromagnetic and NVH design of electric motors has been released the 2nd of October 2018.
Key features
Simulation workflow
- Non linear run-up is now handled both in transient and quasi static variable speed modes
- Transient mode is available for all electromagnetic model types
- Improvement of current / voltage import function (Id/Iq point is respected)
Geometry
- Simplified electrical machine scripts default_PMSM.m and default_SCIM.m
Electrical
- Calculation of flux linkage maps as a function of Id/Iq to be used in equivalent circuit
- Improvement of voltage/current PWM waveform generation with analytical hamronics
- Improve support for dual three-phase machines
Electromagnetics
- Coupling with XFEMM (Input.Simu.is_xfemm in default_proj) for Linux compatibility
- Torque ripple now calculated during spectrogram synthesis
Structural mechanics
- Modulation effect available in magnetic lumped tooth force calculation
- Bending moment at tooth tips is calculated
- type_mass_model for ansys coupling to take into account the mass of the winding or magnet in the lamination density
Post-Processing
- Plot 3D quiver of FrFt tooth forces (useful for skew effect visualization)
New validation cases
- ALG_044: Comparison between transient operation and spectrogram synthesis on open circuit case of tuto_IPMSM_001
- ALG_045: Import current waveform and check rotor position
- ALG_046: Non-linear run-up
Miscellaneous
- Blackman windowing now available
- Linux compatibility checked
- Help text for plot command improved
- init_machine and init_proj encrypted files prevent modifications of default project and machine files
