Good morning,

I am trying to design a synchronous machine with salient poles in FluxMotor, however it seems not possible to do it directly. Is there a way to make the airgap variable, maybe by using extension with other softwares ?

Thanks for your assistance and consideration.

Best regards,

Baptiste Chantre

    Hi Baptiste,

    In version 2023.1, we have included salient pole inner rotor in FluxMotor and different rotor part shapes are also included to choose from based on the requirement.
