Fluidyn MP EMG
Electromagnetics Simulation Module
Fluidyn-MP–EMG is dedicated to the simulation of electromagnetic phenomena and their interaction with fluid flow, heat transfer, and structural mechanics. The module solves Maxwell’s equations using specialized numerical formulations adapted to low-frequency, high-frequency, and magnetohydrodynamic applications.
The EMG module combines several electromagnetic solvers that can operate independently or be fully coupled with other fluidyn-MP modules to perform integrated multiphysics simulations. This enables the analysis of complex interactions between electromagnetic fields, fluid motion, thermal effects, and structural response within a unified simulation environment.
