Ansys Maxwell vs. Simcenter Femap

Ansys Maxwell is a low frequency electromagnetic field solver for electric machines, transformers, actuators and other electromechanical devices. It solves static, frequency-domain and time-varying electric fields. Maxwell offers specialized design interfaces for electric machines and power converters. Maxwell offers trusted simulation of low-frequency electromagnetic fields in industrial components.

Simcenter™ Femap software from Siemens Digital Industries Software is an advanced simulation application for creating, editing, and inspecting finite element models of complex products or systems. Engineers can use advanced workflows in Simcenter Femap to model components, assemblies, or systems, to then determine a model’s behavioral response when subjected to real-world conditions.
