GenAC primary solver utilizes an iterative approach in which machine magnetic fields are calculated using finite element techniques. These results are used to calculate winding currents in a time domain SPICE circuit model. The process continues until convergence is achieved.

GenAC was designed for use by a wide range of engineers, from those wishing to perform "what-if" analyses on existing products to advanced designers working on exotic new prototypes.

From start to finish, results will be obtained in hours, not days or weeks. This is possible due, in part, to MagneForce's large machine geometry library, a resource containing permanent magnet, wound field, and inside-out designs. Each parameterized model can also be modified using the built-in flexible geometry modeler. GenAC's users also benefit from a quick learning curve, resulting in users reaching and maintaining software proficiency with much less effort. Major Features:
