Use AI surrogates and pre-trained foundation models to get performance predictions in seconds. Explore thousands of design variants—from impeller shapes to stator configurations—and identify winning concepts before committing to high-fidelity analysis.
SimScale AI unlocks new ways to innovate in industrial equipment simulation. Explore whole design spaces in minutes and make design decisions with confidence, reducing iterations and increasing engineering velocity.
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.
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.
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.
In the past two years, SimScale has helped Solero pursue 10 new business opportunities in ride dynamics suspension solenoids, battery cooling, and transmission solenoids.
