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
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| 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. |
