PyEMMO

Python Electrical Machine Modelling in ONELAB

PyEMMO is a interface for modeling electrical machines in the open-source FEA software Onelab. The goal of the project is to automate model creation and the simulation workflow for electrical machines with ONELAB.

Installation

Use the package manager pip to install PyEMMO.

pip install pyemmo

You will need versions of Gmsh and GetDP executables. While Gmsh can be directly installed from pip with the Gmsh Python-API, you will need to download GetDP individually.

[!WARNING] Models created with PyEMMO fail with current GetDP version 3.6.0 due to mesh import error! You can check your GetDP version wirh getdp --version

Usage

The easiest way to start is by using the Pyleecan project to create a electrical machine instance and feeding it into the PyEMMO-Pyleecan interface.

• Have a look at the Pyleecan tutorials on how to use Pyleecan. Especially the tutorial on "How to define a machine".
• See the Pyleecan API tutorial for detailed instructions on how to create a ONELAB model from a Pyleecan machine object.
