Quickstart

This quickstart runs a small BDF thermal case from an installed eMachineSim wheel, then reads the heat-balance CSV from Python.

1. Install​

python -m pip install emachinesim-0.1.1-cp313-cp313-win_amd64.whl

2. Run a Sample from Python​

from pathlib import Path
import eMachineSim

repo = Path(".")  # repository root containing Examples/
run_dir = repo / "Examples" / "thermal" / "bdf"

result = eMachineSim.run_file(
    str(run_dir / "input_sample_bdf_min_hexa_qvol.json"),
    str(run_dir),
)

print(result["success"], result["analysis_type"], result["message"])
print(eMachineSim.get_global_heat_balance(str(run_dir)))

3. Inspect Outputs​

For the small thermal case, start with:

thermal_fem_volume_heat.csv
thermal_global_heat_balance.csv
thermal_bdf_import_summary.csv

4. Next Step​

After the quick case works, try the realistic motor steady thermal showcase in:
