Electromagnetic and mechanical coupling

      Hi, I am trying to evaluate the rotor stress of a motor due to electromagnetic force.

      I am getting different stress results if I choose surface force density and surface body density. Which one will be correct?

      I am using Ansys workbench and a coupling between Ansys Maxwell and static structural

      Hi,

      Can you show a snapshot of how both data are applied in the model?  You can use validation to check if the load is imported correctly. Please see if the following links help:

      Thank you, Ashish.

      Please find the attached screenshot for more detail.

      I am doing a static analysis of a rotor as it is for a specific RPM.

      The examples you shared show transient analysis. Do you suggest carrying out transient analysis to evaluate stress due to electromagnetic force?

      I selected all the surfaces of the rotor while using surface force density. And the full rotor body while using body force density option. Please let me know if you need any more details.

      I followed this tutorial for the analysis.

      One more querry. How do we validate the imported load.

      Hi Ashish, 

      Any feedback for me?

      Hi,

      When you right-click on Surface or Body Force Density you should see an option to insert Validation.

      Hi Ashish, 

       

      I checked it does not show that option.

      Hi,

       

      Can you right-click on Imported Force and see if you can see the option?

      Hi , I check there also. No option there as well.
