Magnet_Material

The Magnet_Material class represents the API of the magnet material in the GUI here. This class is accessed through the eMotorSolution.CheckPoints.Materials module.

Parameters
  • name: str - The name of the magnet material.
  • radial_expression: str | float - The radial magnetic flux density of the material, which can be a string mathematical expression or a float value.
  • radial_unit: Literal["T", "mT", "uT", "nT", "pT", "G", "mG", "uG", "nG"] - The unit of radial magnetic flux density. Default is "T".
  • tangential_expression: str | float - The tangential magnetic flux density of the material, which can be a string mathematical expression or a float value.
  • tangential_unit: Literal["T", "mT", "uT", "nT", "pT", "G", "mG", "uG", "nG"] - The unit of tangential magnetic flux density. Default is "T".
  • conductivity_expression: str | float - The conductivity of the material, which can be a string mathematical expression or a float value.
  • conductivity_unit: Literal["S/m", "S/cm", "S/mm", "S/um", "S/nm"] - The unit of conductivity. Default is "S/m".
  • relative_permeability_expression: str | float - The relative permeability of the material, which can be a string mathematical expression or a float value.

Methods

MethodDescription
set_radial(expression, unit)Sets the expression: str | float and unit: Literal["T", "mT", "uT", "nT", "pT", "G", "mG", "uG", "nG"] for the radial magnetic flux density of the material.
set_tangential(expression, unit)Sets the expression: str | float and unit: Literal["T", "mT", "uT", "nT", "pT", "G", "mG", "uG", "nG"] for the tangential magnetic flux density of the material.
set_conductivity(expression, unit)Sets the expression: str | float and unit: Literal["S/m", "S/cm", "S/mm", "S/um", "S/nm"] for the conductivity of the material.
set_linear_permeability(expression)Changes the permeability of the material to a LinearPermeability instance with the given expression: str | float as the relative permeability.
validate()Returns the validation status in dictionary format.

radial_unit="T",
tangential_expression="0.0",
tangential_unit="T",
conductivity_expression="0.0",
conductivity_unit="S/m",
relative_permeability_expression="1.0",
)

# Add the new material to the project's materials collection
project.materials.collection["Test"] = new_material
