Does Flux consider theese existing forces?
If I model an existing Lorentz forces based actuator in Flux I found out that the real forces seem to be less than the ones given by the simulation. I thougth that this could be because of some reasons and I do not know if this is already considered by the sowftware or not. This is the list of possible causes:
-Brake forces due to Eddy currents: It might happen that the Eddy currents generated in the coil affect it's movement. (I think that it is considered by the software but it's just to be sure).
-Histeresis forces: If applied magnetic field is retarded compared to the material's magnetization, it is possible to brake the coil.
-Viscous forces: does Flux consider the air in the cavity of my motor? If not it might be the reason why in reality it moves worse (it is encapsulated as if it was a syringe)
-Back electromotive forces: I think they are considered by Flux but it's just to be sure.
