I am working on a coreless axial flux permanent magnet machine design, and am having issues with the transformation of magnetic equivalent circuits using 2D models.

Attached is a reference sample
I look forward to your kind assistance.
Best regards

    Hello Isiaka,

    Why you don't use our macro to create axial flux motor? You can set as air the teeth in case.

    About the equivalent magnetic circuit using 2D models, you normally need to consider the same cross section but this is quite simple when you have to reduce a 3D magnetic circuit into an equivalent 2D one.

    In this case is not clear for me the aim of this equivalence and what you need to do since you have just a portion of the magnetic circuit in 3D. Could you help me to better understand what you mean?

    Best regards,
