From: markp on 19 Jul 2010 09:05 Hi All, I'm looking for simple to drive, and cheap, transformer design software that can cope with saturable cores and various types of construction (e.g. 3 legged version with windings on both outer limbs and the inner limb, such is used in saturable core reactors). Basically I want to just input some standard parameters such as VA rating, turns ratio, output inductance ranges (for a saturable core) etc. and for the software to generate a design file for a manufacturer to convert into a real transformer. Even better if it produces a SPICE or LTSpice model to simulate with. Anyone know of a such software? I've heard of Intusoft's Magnetics Designer but this is a bit expensive and looks pretty complicated to drive. Thanks! Mark. |
