Thank you very much for the feedback.
Yes, the magnetic model of pyleecan that is calling FEMM is exactly working as you described: quasi-static with imposed current and rotor position.
Concerning your last question, we are currently discussing about developing a dynamic simulation mode that can couple electric and magnetic resolution using the coupling with Elmer (see #202 #205).
Besides, you can have a look to the general issue (#214) that summarizes the mid/long-term roadmap of pyleecan developments and that we'll present during tomorrow's webinar on how to contribute to pyleecan (https://www.pyleecan.org/tutorials.html).
Best regards, Emile
Really exciting project, which is advancing here - large praise to the project group!
After going through the tutorials and documentation it seems that the simulation so far is always working with predefined current waveforms in a (quasi-)static fashion - is that correct or did I missed something?
In particular, I'm looking for a dynamic simulation mode where the voltage applied to the motor terminals is the input quantity to the simulation resulting in current and torque waveforms over time as outputs. If such a mode is available one could easily integrate the pyleecan toolbox within a co-simulation framework (adding power electronics, controller and mechanical load models) which would be very nice for certain investigations like accurate loss modeling or (automatic) controller tuning.
Is such a feature already available or plant for the fture?
