permanent magnets

Description
Magnum (Version 2.5) is a complete tool for 3D finite-element magnetostatic calculations. The program achieves unprecendented accuracy and speed at a moderate price. Magnum can perform three types of calculations: 1) free-space fields in unbounded volumes for given applied currents, 2) bounded fields in the presence of coils, permanent magents and saturable isotropic ferromagnetic materials and 3) pulsed fields in regions with ideal conductors. The package includes two additional programs: MagWinder (an interactive preprocessor to construct three-dimensional drive coils) and MagView (a postprocessor for 2D/3D plots and analyses). Magnum has extensive applications to the design of magnets (with and without iron) and permanent magnet assemblies. (Available for 32- and 64-bit Windows. MetaMesh required.)
