1+1=3: How Combining Power Electronics and Motor Simulation Boosts EV Powertrain Design?

Electric motors and inverters are central to modern electrification, making their optimization crucial for efficiency, sustainability, and performance. Accurately evaluating losses in both components is a key challenge in motor drive design. This webinar will demonstrate how the combined use of SIMBA and JMAG provides fast and accurate solutions to these challenges.

We will first present a streamlined simulation workflow using SIMBA integrated with a JMAG-RT model. This approach enables rapid evaluation of inverter, iron, and copper losses in the motor, allowing engineers to generate complete drive efficiency maps in just a few minutes.

For applications requiring higher accuracy—such as the analysis of permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs)—or greater flexibility when working with evolving motor designs, we will introduce a co-simulation method using JMAG and SIMBA. Unlike JMAG-RT models, which can be time-consuming to generate and must be recreated whenever motor parameters change, co-simulation provides a more adaptable and precise workflow. It will also provide detailed loss analysis, including magnet losses due to eddy currents caused by inverter-induced current harmonics.

Join us to discover how integrating SIMBA and JMAG can accelerate motor drive development while improving simulation fidelity and design confidence.
