Ansys Magnetostatic Tutorial

Set up the magnetostatic analysis by selecting "Analysis" > "Magnetostatic" from the menu. Choose the solver type and convergence criteria.

The magnetostatic solver in Ansys Maxwell is fast, accurate, and indispensable for DC magnetic device design. Now it’s your turn: Modify the tutorial example – change the magnet grade, add a second magnet, or introduce a coil – and observe how the fields change. ansys magnetostatic tutorial
