A real-time electromagnetic analysis of electric machines for educational purposes and laboratory implementation

This paper present a system for visually analyzing the electromagnetic fields of electrical machines used in the energy conversion laboratory. The system utilizes the finite element method as well as various modules to achieve a real-time effect in the analysis of electrical machines while hands-on experimentation is in progress. The proposed system is aimed at developing a tool that would help improve a student's understanding of the electromagnetic fields inside these machines and its use in calculating performance measures as well as operational concepts pertaining to the practical study of electrical machines.
