Hi,

I've been looking on some posts inside the forum about rotating machines, however I am facing some problems with my simulation.

My project is: a simulation of a induction motor. I have defined as finalized assembly, a union for all stator parts and another union with all rotor parts. Also I have defined the identity pairs between rotor and stator.
I have multi-turn coil domains defining windings on the rotor with current sources in different phases.

When I try to rotate the rotor with prescribed rotational velocity it does not work. It always be static for every time value.

Does anyone have any suggestion about what I am doing wrong?

Thanks for your help.

Maybe you can attach your model or a simplified one. It would be easier to have a look inside.

Hello,

I was having this issue myself and did not find a solution for weeks, until I figured it out myself.
You have to set two frames in the result nodes to "spatial".
At least it fixed the "non- rotating- problem" for me. I attached a screenshot where you can see the two things I changed. The one I forgot is the one in the background.

Hope it helps.
