Magnetostatic analysis is a fundamental simulation technique used to calculate magnetic fields generated by or permanent magnets . In this tutorial, you will learn the essential workflow for conducting a magnetostatic simulation using Ansys Maxwell , the industry-standard tool for low-frequency electromagnetics. What is Magnetostatic Analysis? ansys magnetostatic tutorial
: Draw the components of your system (e.g., coils, steel cores, or magnets) using the toolset in the Modeler window

Run the analysis by selecting "Analyze" > "Run" from the menu.
In this tutorial, we will simulate a simple electromagnetic device, a coil with a ferromagnetic core. Remanence A/m (e
Maxwell’s magnetostatic solver uses an process based on energy error. You don’t need a perfect initial mesh; the solver will refine.
Magnetostatic analysis is a type of electromagnetic simulation that studies the behavior of magnetic fields in a static condition, i.e., when the magnetic field is not changing over time. This type of analysis is essential for designing and optimizing electromagnetic devices, as it helps engineers to understand how the magnetic field interacts with the device and its surroundings.
