JMAG is a finite element analysis software for electromagnetic field analysis.

It supports the development and design of electrical and magnetic devices such as motors, actuators, and circuit components. JMAG features friendly user interface, powerful mesh generation and editing capability, robust and accurate solver, and comprehensive material database. It is particularly suitable for rotating devices such as electric machines.

Linking JMAG to PSIM makes it possible to investigate the performance of devices under the actual control conditions, and verify the operation at the system level. This feature is particularly useful for the development of a library of device behavior models. The following two types of links are supported.

With the MagCoupler Module, motor manufacturers can interface and test their motor design with the intended power converters and control schemes, and optimize the design based on performance, size, and cost.

On the other hand, the MagCoupler Module expands PSIM's capability to finite element analysis.
A major advantage is that one can simulate electric machines based on the definition of the machine dimension, structure, and materials, thus eliminating the need to extract or derive machine parameters. This gives more accurate results that take into account magnetic saturation and losses, time harmonics and space harmonics, and other nonlinear effects that would be difficult to consider otherwise.

In addition, since PSIM links to Matlab/Simulink through the SimCoupler Module, one can run all three software together by having the control in Simulink, the power converter in PSIM, and the electric machine in JMAG.

The MagCoupler Module is very easy to use, and the link between PSIM and JMAG can be easily set up with the minimum user input and without any custom C/C++ programming.

The MagCoupler Module is an add-on module to the PSIM software. It provides the dynamic link for the PSIM and JMAG co-simulation, so that:
  • The power converter and control part of a system can be implemented and simulated in PSIM,
  • Electric machines and other magnetic devices can be implemented and simulated in JMAG.
