Electric Machines and Drives Simulation
GT-SUITE contains a rich library of solutions for simulating and optimizing both DC and AC electric machines and their drives
Electric Machines and DrivesPREDICTIVE PHYSICS SOLUTIONS
Provided within the software are models of varying levels of fidelity, to achieve different objectives. For example, GT contains simple, fast-running efficiency-based models that are suitable for vehicle energy management purposes.
GT also provides the ideal environment for higher-fidelity simulations. A full library of electrical components and transistors is included to drive the electric machines. Thermal management engineers are also able to create and analyze high fidelity thermal models.
Electric Machines and DrivesAPPLICATION HIGHLIGHTS
- Various levels of model fidelity, from map-based representations for vehicle performance and energy management, to co-simulation with the most popular 3D electromagnetics tools for NVH and thermal boundary conditions
