Introduction to Ansys
Motor-CAD (Self-paced Learning Available)

Course Overview

This course provides an introduction to designing electric motors using Ansys Motor-CAD. This self-learning course uses short video tutorials and training materials to guide participants through the modelling and design of three motor types: BPM machines, inverter-fed IM and direct online IM—along with additional content for switched reluctance machines, synchronous reluctance machines, synchronous wound field generators and single-phase induction machines.

Prerequisites

  • Basic knowledge of electric machines.
  • An active Motor-CAD license is required to take part in this course.

Teaching Method

This self-paced course uses short video tutorials and training materials to guide participants through the modelling and design of different motor types using Motor-CAD software.
