Ansoft Releases Maxwell v12 and RMxprt v12

  
    
  
  
    
      Ansoft Corporation (NASDAQ: ANST) announces Maxwell® 
      v12 and RMxprt™ v12. Maxwell is the company's 
      electromagnetic field simulation software used for the design and 
      analysis of 3D/2D structures, such as motors, actuators, transformers 
      and other electric and electromechanical devices common to automotive, 
      military/aerospace and industrial systems. RMxprt is a specialized 
      software program dedicated to the design of electric machines.
    
    
      Maxwell v12 includes a new 3D electric transient solver that solves 
      time-varying electric fields due to a transient disturbance, such as 
      lightning strikes on electrical equipment. The new version also is 
      equipped with advanced model healing capabilities. This productivity 
      feature will automatically identify and resolve potential problems with 
      geometry imported from popular CAD systems and streamline the solution 
      process.
    
    
      Additionally, the Ansoft next-generation desktop architecture has been 
      added to the Maxwell 2D solvers. This intuitive, easy-to-use interface 
      offers many new usability enhancements, including advanced 2D modeling, 
      powerful scripting capability and enhanced post-processing.
    
    
      RMxprt has been upgraded with a new capability to solve three-phase 
      non-salient synchronous machines, automated project setup for Maxwell 
      and a new wire library allowing motor designers to study the effects of 
      various wire types of a design prior to physical prototype creation.
