Any explanation?
Hi everyone, I’m trying to understand how long-term thermal behavior is usually handled in COMSOL for rotating machines. For example, PMSM simulations are often performed over only a fraction of a second or a few electrical cycles, but if I want to study the temperature evolution over 1–2 minutes, how is this normally done? In my case, I have a rotating conducting plate heated by permanent magnets, and a fully coupled electromagnetic + thermal simulation becomes extremely heavy because the electromagnetic field has to be solved continuously during the rotation. What is the recommended approach for predicting the temperature after 1–2 minutes without simulating every single rotation over the entire period?
