[Getdp] vector normal to a magnet

[Joseph Frippiat]

The development version of GetDP that I downloaded yesterday evening
corrects this problem.

This doesn’t work (b = 0 everywhere):

  For k In {1:nbMagnets}

    br[ Rotor_Magnet~{k} ] = b_remanent * Vector[ 0, 1, 0 ];

  EndFor

 

This works (with the wrong amplitude) :

  For k In {1:nbMagnets}

    br[ Rotor_Magnet~{k} ] = b_remanent * Vector[ 0, Y[], 0 ];

  EndFor

 

Rotate doesn’t work for me (b = 0 everywhere).

Joseph,

Because Atan2[Y[],X[]]] gives you the angle made by the position vector (
X[] , Y [] ) (of each current point in the XY-plane, i.e. each point where
this function has to be evaluated) (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atan2),
the Vector[] function

  Vector[ Cos[Atan2[Y[],X[]]], Sin[Atan2[Y[],X[]]], 0 ]

gives a radial vector at this point (which can be checked on your field map:
the direction of the field in the magnets is mainly the radial one.

Cos[Atan2[Y[],X[]]] is the X-projection of the unit radial vector.
Sin[Atan2[Y[],X[]]] is the Y-projection of the unit radial vector.

To define the direction you wish for the remanent induction in each magnet,
you should use the function I sent you yesterday. If you wish, send me your
.geo and .pro files and I will implement it for you.

Patrick

I don't understand the Vector[] usage..

With this :

  For k In {1:nbMagnets}
    br[ Rotor_Magnet~{k} ] = b_remanent * Vector[ Cos[Atan2[Y[],X[]]],
Sin[Atan2[Y[],X[]]], 0 ];
  EndFor

I have a b field (not the wanted one) :



With this :

  For k In {1:nbMagnets}
    br[ Rotor_Magnet~{k} ] = b_remanent * Vector[ Cos[Atan2[Y[],X[]]+Pi/4],
Sin[Atan2[Y[],X[]]+Pi/4], 0 ];
  EndFor

I have nothing :



Why ?
