Workbench Simulation of a Magnetic Valve October 10, 2006 A Guide for Magnetic Simulation of a Magnetic Valve ANSYS Workbench Simulation Page 1 of 23 Introduction The Magnetic Valve includes a fixed and a rotating part
The rotating body has to move, as quickly as possible, to rest in one of the 2 possible stop positions
Driving current patterns are the input to generate suitable torques
The customer experienced different performances of the valve for different current patterns: sometimes he got strong bumps on the mechanic stops and failures of the valve behaviour
the customer decided to commit a simulation of the magnetic and dynamic behaviour of the valve, instead to build a prototype
Analysis Goal The goal is ton achieve measure of the Magnetic Torque, as function of current and ro
