CFD-ACE+ solves the scalar/vector potential version of Maxwell's equations using a finite-volume formulation for the accurate prediction of the fields and waves associated with electromagnetic phenomena. The salient features of the electric and magnetic modules include:

• Time and frequency domain formulations
• Arbitrary specification of material properties
• Calculation of Maxwell stress tensor
  

Some of the most common uses of this module is:

• Electromagnetic fields of antennas
• Optical EM wave propagation, diffraction, scattering, etc.
• Electric fields due to time varying magnetic fields
• Eddy Currents
• Lorentz forces
• Induction heating
• Modeling of inductively coupled plasmas

The CFD-ACE+ Electromagnetics module has been validated and is coupled with other CFD-ACE+ physical models to provide true multiphysics solutions to very complex problems.
