Test, validate, and optimize your electromagnetic projects with ease

The Smarter, Faster Way to Electromagnetic Simulation

  • 3D Electromagnetic Field Analysis – Visualize flux distribution, detect saturation, and reduce leakage to improve efficiency of transformers.
  • Electro-Thermal Modeling – Predict copper and core losses, eddy current losses,  identify hotspots, and optimize cooling strategies.
  • Core & Winding Optimization – Test materials, geometries, and winding layouts to balance cost, weight, and performance.
  • Insulation & Dielectric Strength – Evaluate electric fields and dielectric stresses to ensure high-voltage safety and compliance.

Transfomer Simulation Application Areas

Power & Grid Transformers

Simulate large-scale power transformers used in transmission and distribution networks to optimize performance under real-world load cycles. Use open-circuit and short-circuit tests virtually to predict voltage regulation, losses, and impedance. Combine electromagnetic and thermal modeling to assess cooling strategies, hotspot behavior, and long-term reliability.

Distribution & Medium-Voltage Transformers

Design transformers for industrial, utility, and substation use where efficiency, size, and thermal control are critical. Explore material choices, lamination geometry, and winding arrangements to reduce core and copper losses while ensuring insulation safety. The virtual prototyping of any type of transformer design allows quick iteration and performance trade-off evaluation.

Power Electronics Transformers

Simulation of the transformers used in modern power electronics (such as gate drive and converter isolation transformers) allows engineers to evaluate flux distribution, inductance, skin and proximity effects, and copper/core losses, while also assessing insulation stresses and thermal behavior. By virtually prototyping these compact designs, it becomes easier to optimize efficiency, reliability, and durability for demanding applications in industrial drives, automotive systems, and beyond.
